I’ve seen it and walked away with a very different impression. Sterile and not fan friendly. It’s too big and too dependent on the huge TV screen as many seats are far away from the field. I get that the amenities are nice but they also cost $$$$. 1 hour ago, Tierlifer said: The beautiful part about the renovations to Wrigley and Fenway is they kept the unique old school feeling while upgrading and modernizing where they needed too. Soldier Field seems to have done something similar but I have not been since it has been renovated. Soldier field is a little weird and actually small. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch football to be pampered and distracted by a bunch of useless crap. I just want to watch the game! I don't want to have to pay for all those useless distractions either... what useless distractions.....he said the sight lines are great...concourses are big...bathrooms, food and drink.....except for a huge scoreboard....what is distracting?

I have been to many Professional Sports Stadiums and Arena's all around the world but the AT&T Stadium hands down, is the most impressive facility I have ever seen. I had some time to kill today prior to an event I had to attend so I said, what the heck, let me run out to the stadium and get a few shots and maybe some souvenirs for some friends back home who are Cowboys fans. Little did I know that they had a VIP tour for only $27.00 so I said, what the hell, and took the 11/2 hour intimate tour! First of all, this place is HUGE, Fuccillo HUGE! driving in the area you can see it on the horizon because it just can't hide! Once inside, it's vastness takes on an entirely new scale. NO OBSTRUCTED VIEWS! Nada. Nothing. Nowhere! Site-lines are simply incredible. 105,000 people, are you kidding me? The concourse areas are impressive, MANY bathrooms, restaurants, food& beverage stands, NOTHING was neither forgotten nor no expense was spared to give the Cowboys fans the ultimate Fan and Game experience! I'm an old school Bills fan. Been to many games dating back to the 70's but I have to tell you, this is what we need and we need it DOWNTOWN! I want to be spoiled and pampered when I shell out the $$$ to see my team. I'm tired of the miserable ride in the dead of winter to OP. This is the shiney new toy us Bills fans deserve! Oh and, I also met Jerry Jones as well ? Been there for games. It's a crappy place to watch a game unless, perhaps, you are a corporate shill. There is no atmosphere and sound gets swallowed up in that cathedral. It isn't a football stadium, it's Jerrah's weak attempt to show his worth. No obstructed views? Try the field level boxes. I suppose if you want to look at ass all game long those would be ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my best @ExiledInIllinois voice The termination "wich " in English place-names often points to ancient salt manufacture - the word " wich " (creek, bay; Icel. Droitwich (Wic, Salturic, Wich) probably owed its origin to the springs, which are mentioned in several charters before the Conquest Edited August 27, 2019 by ShadyBillsFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on the 45 yd line, about halfway up, and all I could remember was as bright and shiny the new stadium was, I equally found the huge screen quite annoying. As hard as I tried, you can't help but move your eyes from the field to the screen. I didn't shell out all that money just to watch the game on a giant TV. I was at that game and what made the screen even more annoying was that the players on the screen were going in the opposite direction than the actual players on the field. Very confusing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they take that away, I'm definitely not going to any more games. I'm not driving 5 hours to buy overpriced beer and microwaved food. Not in this lifetime. I understand that completely. But you drive 5 hours fir that purpose. The nfl doesn’t want that. You get bunched in with the drunk kids banging in the parking lots. Throwing each other through flaming tables. The nfl and the teams wants grown ups coming to their games. Spending a ton on overpriced beer and food. They want to price out the casual fan buying $50 tickets. They want $300 tickets and PSLs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For $300, there better be a Pink Floyd concert, with Waters and Gilmour, after the game.

Element115 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I think the OPs experience perfectly illustrates the NFL and the owners' stance when it comes to the Bills needing a new stadium. Penthouse vs. slums etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locomark Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 If you want to go to cheap events, there is always baseball... football is no longer that sport.. Its cheaper for me to fly to Buffalo from Chicago and buy tickets then it is to just buy tickets in Chicago to see the Bills in Chicago when they play there. In fact I'm doing that for the Home Opener and sitting in much better seats than I would ever dream of in Chicago! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the main reasons the NFL is building these gosh-awful mall/movie theater/art museum/cathedral stadiums in the first place. To price out the schmucks (us). I don't want to get priced out. Tailgating as we know it now would be gone forever. If downtown, you'd either "tailgate" in a parking garage or go to a sports bar nearby before the game. I've been to several of these stadiums (Dallas, Detroit, Seattle) and the tailgating sucks if there even is any. Bills build a new stadium and the price of football goes way up. Are you sure you really want that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
