Roch Jim Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 IS there any thought being given to a game watch at New Era Sunday? Put the game on the big screen, charge $10 admission (to be donated to charity) and the Bills still make $$ on reduced parking and full price concessions. You can't tell me they wouldn't easily get 20,000 of us diehards there to watch and celebrate together. Is there any league rule prohibiting this? How do we make this a reality?

The league doesn't permit watch parties AFAIK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously New Era, but it's interesting the article mentions movie theaters when many Sports bars have a larger capacity than many movie theaters and screens almost as big, but part of the reasoning cited in the article is that bars would suffer. League kinda talking out both sides of its mouth there IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 They used to do this, called it Jumbogate. I went a couple times. Here's an old article about it https://www.bizjournals.com/buffalo/stories/2003/09/01/daily19.html?tbddaily19.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterbluesky Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I kind of think it's a good idea to not have a massive gathering....give the support to our local home owned pubs\gin mills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
