    I am from Toronto and it makes me sick to think the Bills may move here. Fans in Canada are not as passionate about the NFL as Americans are. For some stupid reason most Canadians love the CFL which in my opinion is the biggest slap in the face to the greatest game in the world. How do you take a league seriously that only has 8 teams!?

     

    Furthermore, I know what it will be like if or when they move here. I will use this as an example. So many people in Toronto are huge Maple Leafs fans (obviously) But no one can go to games. Why? Because 70% of all tickets sold go to corporations that give them away to clients who could care less about the game that they are watching and only care about the drinks in the martini bar at the Air Canada Center.( If you notice at Leaf games on TV that all the seats near ice level are empty until half way through each period because all the suits are still having their drinks in their private suites) The rest of the tickets are baught up by scalpers and sold for 3 times more than face value. I know this because a friend and I bought 2 tickets off EBAY for STANDING ROOM (I kid you not my back was against the rafters and the beams) for $80.00 each! (Face value was $19.50) We asked a scalper if we gave him our standing room tickets plus $50.00 each for 2 seats in the very last row at the highest level (so we could sit during the game) he laughed and said we would have to give him our tickets plus $100.00 each!

     

    The same will apply to the Bills if they move. We already see it with the stupid prices they charge for tickets. I can almost get season tickets in Buffalo for the price of 1 lower bowl ticket at the Rogers Center! I have been going to Buffalo Bills games every year for the past 25 years and it is the amazing atmosphere that adds to the NFL experience.

     

    And lastly, As a Canadian I know this for a fact that it is ILLEGAL to consume alcohal in public. Translation= NO TAILGATING! The best thing is getting to Ralph Wilson Stadium and going to that 7-11 and buying a tall boy and just walking around the vendors and enjoying my beer. In Toronto they have what they call a "Tailgate Party" where you have to pay admission and then pay absured prices for beer! I believe its like $6.50 just for a bottle of Bud!

     

    Yes I am Canadian and I DO NOT want the Bills to move here. The city of Toronto does not deserve the Buffalo Bills!

     

     

    I would rather the Bills go 0-16 then have them move to Toronto and become a corporate attraction for clients.
