Agree. Also, the Southtowns lifestyle* and real estate is appealing to free agents--another factor to remain in Orchard Park. * lifestyle.. these players can afford a landscaping service to plow the driveway and walks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We now have by far the best athletic performance facility in the NFL and one of the best ones anywhere in the world. I doubt Free Agents are going to be saying"I don't want to come to Buffalo" anymore after seeing that...I know Cole Beasley didn't...he specifically mentioned this as one of the ways Bufalo "takes a dump on" Dallas.

The stadium location has never been very good, and a new stadium there doesn’t change anything in that department. What? I can't even say how much I disagree with almost everything you said here. Far flung location? Really? I'm an out of town season ticket holder for going on 20 years, and the current location, not being in a downtown area, is the best part of New Era Field. Downtown stadiums suck. The parking sucks. The tailgating sucks. The price gouging sucks. And the traffic patterns almost always suck. If you are within an hour drive of an NFL Stadium, you aren't far away. Period. The location isn't far flung, by any stretch of the imagination. The few local business part I can agree. Howvever, who cares? Have you ever been to downtown stadiums where all of the bars, shops, or whatever, that are adjacent to the venue are wall to wall people with nowhere to sit, or even move inside? They suck. The prices suck. The service sucks. Trying to pay your damn bill or eat, most of the time sucks. No thanks. Places like Indianapolis, Charlotte, etc all feel antiseptic and way too clean on Gameday. It's more of a going to a mall feel, than a football game. You can have that crap. The stadium location right now is terrific. The Bills are going to shoot themselves in the foot by going downtown, if they do. Downtown stadiums suck. The entire scene for a downtown stadium becomes antiseptic, dull, and everything becomes overpriced and fake. No thanks!

The Senator Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 5 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: Agreed. The hotel/bar/restaurant scene isn’t ideal either. I’m all for a downtown location in pegulaville with the facilities in OP. NFTA used to run 4 bus routes to the stadium. It was great - I’d drive to Lancaster, go to Mass with my parents, park my car at Clarence Mall and take a 2 dollar bus ride to the stadium - avoid the parking nonsense and he whole drinking/driving risk. Now, the only way out there is drive, Uber, or hire a limo. I am 100% for a downtown stadium that I can walk to in nice weather, or take a quick trolley in rain or snow. They should bulldoze the 50-year old dinosaur in OP (War Memorial Stadium was younger when the Bills abandoned it). I really don’t care where the practice facility or front office is located. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in Rochester. Going to SJF and seeking autographs from the players after practice is part of what cemented me as a Bills fan. The first year of training camp it was trying to get Doug Flutie's autograph...Then Eric Moulds the next year....Then Jay Riemersma....The list goes on and on. I still have all the training camp programs. It's part of what made me a fan (it certainly wasn't the product on the field over the 2000's....). I hope training camp never leaves Greater Rochester. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
