If I have time tomorrow, I'll take a database from 2013 and 2017 and assuming Erie County is the location, compare ownership in those two years and ID parcels where it has changed. I'd need to see a large cluster of parcels changing hands and then explore who. My initial look at 2015 and 2017 in and around downtown doesn't indicate much. No recognizable names, lots of LLCs that come back to known developers and know projects, like Ellicott's projects. 

 

Since the spatial location seems private for personal reasons, I'll have to guess that the locations best serving a new stadium would be in and around downtown/Sabres arena-HarborCenter; around the existing stadium; and possibly that pipe dream West Seneca project from a few years back I think near the Ridge Road exit. 

 

I got some legit questions I won't get answers to but I'll dig if I have time. Easiest way to debunk this is through the statement of property ownership.

No it was never intended to be played in the dead of winter with 12 inches of snow falling.

 

It was always a fall sport. Windy and leaves falling and rain at times. Not Winter weather.

 

I clearly recall sitting through the Bengals game back in the Rockpile in a similar storm. It’s been happening for a long time. If you play in December and January, the weather will look a lot like winter. Remember the fog game in Philly? Weather happens.

I'm getting the sense the stadium will be built near Dunkirk. Just a hunch I guess, how close am I Dunkirk Don?

Has anyone realized yet that, when I make a random reference out of left field like that, it probably indicates I've been reading about it recently?

 

 

I meant in general.  Your reference was another dollop of icing on this huge cheesecake of a thread.

Can anyone decipher what any of this means?

 

 

No but I know someone who can.

Stadium is not going to be built in Dunkirk fredonia. Has to be close to Toronto and  Rochester.  

 

My sources tell me this is geographically impossible. Update on possible tectonic shifts coming tomorrow.

I do COMPLETELY agree. It’s a sport that starts training in summer, starts the season in fall and finishes in winter. Unless you are the Dolphins! :)

 

You have to be ready to play in all conditions. Jax in September is murder. Same can be true with Green Bay in December. I like the weather element, and it CAN be an advantage, but retractable suits me too.

They would never build the stadium close to Fredonia, they'd lose their second biggest market, which is rochester. With traffic it's a 2 hr drive from Rochester, add another hr to that drive and their is no way most fans from the Roc are driving that far

His point in referencing the people he did from Dunkirk&Fredonia was not for Stadium location but that he has internal Bills contacts from Dunkirk and his user name is Dunkirk Don.

I would hope based on some references that is true, and then sometimes I hope that it’s not true. But I try not to judge.

Look up the 1948 NFL Championship game.
