assuming covid is the thing of the past next year

and no vaccine card needed


they could fill 100,000 fans in a stadium


between canadians not being able to come, and the non vaxers on the outs, it's a phase that will be outgrown in 10 months, if everything goes well


the bills facebook pages turned into stub hub since they had to have the shot

Covid is here to stay. Americans are stupid and stubborn...more so than any other country.

Maybe they'll come up with better treatments for Covid, which will decrease hospitalizations and deaths. Maybe they can even come up with over-the-counter meds for it - that'd be nice. But I don't see it ever going way, due to anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers.

Erods probably the only guy with another shot of playing in buffalo. Although he was rumored to request a trade?

How many games are you gonna go to this season baller?

I believe I have 2 months left before I can apply for Sabres credentials through Hockeybuzz. If that comes through I plan to attend games regularly

perhaps I should have rephrased it to when the covid numbers are minimal like flu and other viruses

as for the masks, I do not think they stop droplets, esp cloth masks but that is for another day

I have the shot, I did my part

Between these two statements one can draw multiple conclusions. Pause for thought.

Way too early to tell if he’s good or bad. He also only played in the world juniors on an all star team.

I’m being realistic not negative

His path to earning the spot on that all star team was pretty impressive, though.

Yeah, that’s true. UPL was our best goalie prospect by far since Miller and as a pro he’s looked like poo

Good.post

I really think taking a year off for some season ticket holders was refreshing. More comfortable. They lost some people to stimulus check tv sets and mancaves.

Going to a Bill's game is a long day. Almost like a job.

Not sure if covid or the next thing will ever be gone...
People are mad at the nfl still too.

Small and high demand. Make it duel with the Sabres.
You know that's what they've wanted all along.

The stadium is going to be considerably smaller. Probably 50,000-55,000.

The prices, pandemic, vaccines and everyone's new Bill's cave is going to cut the attendance way down.

Hard time filling the stadium the last 2 weeks.
Lots of free tickets floating around ...

Temporary ailment.
Didn't the various reports all say the plans called for 60 -62k seats?

Yup.

BTW,
I agree with the Stztium being Downtown. That South Park area mentioned in the article would be perfect...especially if they could "straighten-out" the Buffalo River and position the Statium closer to Furhman Blvd / Ohio St and then build a great Convention Hall down there as well...let businesses sprout up around them. Get the Transit and RR Trains to have a stop down there to ease congestion. Leverage the opportunity Buffalo!

As much as I want the City of Buffalo to go big, dream and make a positive impact ... my life doesn't change one way or the other.
