MattF2000 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Just a thought but I was wondering if this is allowed.. Obviously the Bills/Fins game this weekend may not have huge playoff implications although both teams are still mathematically alive. But if the game doesn't sell out by Thursday at 1pm, is it possible for Ralph to buy up the tickets and donate them to, say, less fortunate kids in Buffalo so the game can be on television? It'd be a great publicity stunt right around the holidays. And a Bills/Dolphins game not on television in late December just seems like a crime against humanity. Ok well maybe not that severe but.. I for one will be at the game as usual but I didn't know if this was a possibility. I know sometimes corporations have bought the tickets up. I didn't know if the actual owner was allowed to...

Ralph and/or a corporate sponsor buyout the rest of the tickets and donate them to charities, usually underprivilaged kids or military families. Its happened many times in the past and there is no rule against it. The NFL doesn't care who buys the tickets, only that the tickets are sold.

Arkady Renko Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Hopefully Bills fans are pumped enough after that win to make it at least close to a sellout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitner20 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Isn't there like over 6K tickets left? I doubt Ralph is buying those... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Ralph is buying those... 863123[/snapback] I think the phins game has only a couple thousand, the Titans game has more then 6 thousand left. It don't matter to me though, I have done my part and will be there for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
