Not sure how accurate this is because the numbers keep moving. The $400M for the Sabres stadium was part of a reported initial proposal of $1.5B. This is $1.4B and mentions the Bills stadium exclusively so who knows what the latest is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Aud Smell Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Yeah - this latest report talks about a price tag of $1.4B for the football stadium. And 60,000 would be the smallest in the league, but that is, as others have noted, the trend. I am sure they've worked up the economics of it. These modern stadiums don't throw cash by piling in 80,000 unwashed commoners -- they make money by having high-end price points for luxury suites, club seats, PSL's.

I’m told PSE has not asked for a penny to renovate the 25-year-old KeyBank Arena. Not yet anyway. The Sabres’ lease runs until 2025. PSE is said to be focusing solely on the Bills’ stadium with the intention of addressing KeyBank Center afterward. https://theathletic.com/2761986/2021/08/10/bills-new-stadium-faq-heres-what-were-hearing-and-what-we-know-about-the-project/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish people would find a new joke. They made this one several years ago in Carolina and it was made every time a white backup QB looked good behind Cam. I still like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 My nephew is coming up from Florida for hunting season and wanted to see the Bills-Pats. So he bought tickets. We'll be down in 108 close to the field. I would have advised him to get a little higher (shut up, @Eleven), but I wasn't consulted. (Actually, I would have advised him to buy a lot higher, as in the upper deck. These tickets were well over $200 bucks. Ouch.) My brother, the nephew's father, won't attend because of the black national anthem, kneeling or some such other nonsense. It'll be an interesting experience. I haven't been to a regular season since 2000, I think. Whatever year they played SD. Flutie was the QB. Since then, as I've mentioned here, I fell out of love with the Bills and divorced them. I am resolved, however, for one night to have sex with my ex. I am going to fake it beyond belief. Most of all, I just want it to snow. Really hard. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
