Panthers at Bills pre-season, August 15th, pre-game info thread
cdl 716 replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall
Full Jumbotron pictures though..they look fine to me. -
I went to the 2024 game at SoFi and found the Jumbotron incredibly distracting…great for replays but just over the top IMO. I sat in one of their club sections near midfield and looking at the Jumbotron felt a little like walking into a wall of flatscreens at Best Buy…just too much. I was at the new Highmark in the 716 club on Saturday and thought the stadium was great. With the exception of the obstructed view complaints, I thought many of the other comments were simply people trolling or exaggerating. Best comment I read was it felt like being at road game…which is exactly what I thought. Really nice and comparable to many of the nicer stadiums in the league.

Definitely….I’m in C227…on the second level just above your section I think. Are you going to the Panthers preseason game on Saturday?

I received an email a few days before the blue and red that said I was selected to test the “Bills Wallet.” They loaded $100 on my card and said I could use it for food or merchandise but only on the day of the blue and red (and then it expires). It actually worked and my son and I spent about $99 dollars on food and drinks. I would never spend that much normally, but it seemed like “free” money (I know nothing is free in today’s NFL). Our seats are in the 716 club…which I thought was really well done…except for that tripping hazard on the second floor which someone already mentioned. I’ve been to a number of newer road stadiums and the new Highmark compared favorably IMO.

I’ll be there with my son. Section C227 row 5. Can’t wait.

Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
cdl 716 replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
I wanted to schedule a tour, but I’m struggling with the fact that I purchased two PSLs in the East Club and now I have to pay for a tour too? I thought it would have been a nice perk to throw in a complimentary tour for club seat PSL holders, but then again we’ve seen the debate regarding the Blue and Red practice for PSL holders and the free practice tickets for the public. -
Thanks…and I suspect your recovery was, and continues to be, incredible as well.

Me too…had a vertebral artery dissection in 2023 at age 53 that led to a stroke. Healthy all my life, 20+ year runner, never spent a night in a hospital before then, and my team of doctors were never able to identify the cause. I was released after 17 days and had to learn to walk again. Have since earned a black belt in tae kwon do along side my son…never take anything for granted.

Same….and you said it very well. I don’t have a country club membership or an expensive car, but I have two club seats in the new stadium. And I’ve started going to road games too…we’ve got a generational talent at QB and want to watch in person as much as possible.

Roll call: Season ticket seats in the new stadium

Anybody going to the Bills Draft Party?
cdl 716 replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
No it’s be hosted by the Bills for club seat holders. Showing the Sabres game would be cool since we may not be picking until ~1100 pm. -
Anybody going to the Bills Draft Party?
cdl 716 replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’ll be there…did you see they changed the time from 700 to 800? I was thinking about bringing my son but I thought the original ticket said adults only. -
My son and I were in 437, row P. Lots of Bills fans near us….the jags fans in our area ranged from respectful/intense to pretty obnoxious and lacking in awareness of game situations and strategy. Also, I’m always surprised by the methods used in away stadiums to rev up the home crowd. The “duval” and move the chains, move the chains, move the chains chants got old after pretty quick…but who knows, maybe that’s what visitors think of the train whistle at highmark. Lots of “Duval” chants by Bills exiting the stadium….and lots of long faces on the game day express bus back to the satellite lot.

Just bought two seats in Section 437….$240 each. Like the vantage point and being on the Bills sideline.
-
Flying down from Buffalo on Saturday with my son. Still monitoring ticket prices…will probably wait until Friday or Saturday to purchase. Prices seem to be dropping slightly the past few days.
