coloradobillsfan Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Can the Bills move a Sunday game to Saturday? Has this ever happened before? Through the grapevine (a friend who works with several stadium security guards) I've heard the Bills are trying to move the Sun 12/24 game vs the titans to Sat 12/23 because they are having trouble getting enough concession workers. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 If the NFL lets them move it, then they would have to let everyone change if they want. NFL Week 16 schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 If the NFL lets them move it, then they would have to let everyone change if they want. NFL Week 16 schedule 824351[/snapback] I agree. Its not the NFLs fault that Ralph couldn't hire enough support staff to meet an event planned several months in adance Tho i think the NFL should have scheduled the games a day earlier (Friday/Saturday) due to the holiday. But that's when the game scheduled months ago and the old man had plenty of time to hire help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This goes hand in hand with Ralphs inability to hire a competent security staff (always goes lowest bidder). And yes I have voiced my opinions on security to the Buffalo Bills. I did get a nice 2 page response back though but everything that they claimed was being addressed was eliminated by this last games horrific event of a pats fan being mauled in the parking lot. This entire organization is slowly achieving toilet status this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 The solution to the problem is intuitively obvious. You don't change the game day. You let the fans bring in their own food and beer. It's called "Good will to fans" in the Holiday spirit. Ralph won't lose that much money on concessions. Afterall he won't have a payroll to make, will use less gas and electricity and he's probably making more on the interest he's making on being seventeen billion dollars under the cap anyway. Merry Christmas Ralphie. To you and yours too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You let the fans bring in their own food and beer. 824415[/snapback] It will never happen. They have successfully banned food and beverage (remember when you could bring in thermoses?) on the pretext of "security". Relaxing the policy for a game would ruin that facade.

Have you ever seen security patrol any NFL parking lots? If called they will respond but then it's too late. The culprits here are the 12th fans that kept walking and let the melee continue.

But from what I've read is that not all of our final home games are sold out. Can you see the future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
