Philly McButterpants Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Is the opener a sell-out? Will it be shown on local TV? I'll actually be in Buffalo this weekend, so my Sunday Ticket won't come in to play. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly McButterpants Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 GTFO! When did that start? Living in the Philly area, i really don't care if the Iggles are on, so I haven't paid any attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) When NFL owners voted on Monday to lift the league's blackout policy for the 2015 season, the measure passed, but it didn't pass unanimously. The decision to suspend blackouts came after NFL owners voted in favor of it 31-1. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-owners-voted-31-1-to-end-tv-blackouts-heres-who-voted-against-it/ The league blackout policy has been suspended on a year-to-year basis since 2015. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Football_League_television_blackout_policies Edited September 7, 2017 by ALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodeMonkey Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 So you happen to be in town on home opener weekend and...you want to watch on TV? Probably only if it isn't a sellout. But you can always scalp a ticket even if it is sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4_kidd_4 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Ah the old "70,000 drunk people" hot n spicy take. Please. Anyhap, I don't think any home game is sold out yet. They usually announce sellouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billsmovinup Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 So you happen to be in town on home opener weekend and...you want to watch on TV? To avoid paying 100 for the ticket. 30 for parking. 10 each for 3 or 4 watereddown beers and 7 for a stale piece of pizza when I can a large pizza and twenty wings at santoras for 30 and can pay 6 bucks for a premium six pack and watch them lose on tv. Absolutely not going to the opener. My entertaiment dollar went to U2 tuesday and I had a great time. Didnt walk out of the stadium all pissed off that night.

SoTier Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Wow when was the last time the home opener didn't sell out Or a Jests game any time in the season. Jests games (and Giants games when the Bills play them) always sell out because 1)so many downstate fans travel to see the games here because tix are easier to get ... and cheaper; 2) there are so many downstate transplants in the area; 3) there are so many downstate college students around. It says a lot about what both Jests and Bills fans think of their respective teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonabb Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I prefer not to be in the vicinity of vomit and drunken fools. Most people are responsible but every year the proportion of ragamuffins increases. Typical social construction created and exacerbated by social media pics and print media hype. This is how stereotypes start. I was just talked to guys in our STH group and we were remarking how calm it seemed last year. I honestly can't think of one bad episode. Outside of spots in the endzone and higher and corner upper decks, it's a pretty good experience. If you can get a ticket that is from a STH, odds are the crowd around you will be great. And if you're a boring and self-righteous ah-hole, stay in your cul-de-sac man cave you have because you hate your wife and she won't let you outside anyway.
