I can't picture watching the Bills play inside. The "home" games in Toronto were horrible. I'm 51 now and still love the outdoor atmosphere. Maybe that'll change the older I get. But for now, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. I'm psyched for this Sunday as the weather is gonna be good football weather. Some people have CTE even though they did not play football. Bills cannot sell out all of their club seats but they want next one stadium to be in a dome. If you are willing to pay higher prices pay the higher prices now for club seats and you will not have issue with weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point Limeaid, To me though the ability to eventually have a Superbowl in Buffalo and year round use of the Dome stadium itself makes a Dome the best choice IMO. Retractable roof would be ideal. Also taking kids to a football game in a cotrolled enviroment is also a good sell. Buffalo has the worst weather conditions for an outside stadium in the NFL.

There is NO chance of a Superbowl in Buffalo until global warming makes Buffalo the garden spot of NE. Any such discussion is fantasy. When Bills can sell out their club seats and corporate seats the Bills will consider a stadium which will cost more and have less seats to sell.

Yes but not like those cities. Buffalo does not have enough hotel rooms to allow it be choice for selection committee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but not nearly enough of an increase to overall hotel capacity for hosting a Super Bowl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After further review I concede on the Superbowl in Buffalo idea. You fellas are correct. Not enough accommodations. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 IMO since NFL has two main events, the NFL Draft and the Superbowl, those sites which are not eligible for Superbowl should be those eligible to be places to be picked for NFL Draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) It looks like an uphill battle fore dome lovers. Terry Pegula, from today's Buffalo News as quoted on the front page of TBD: Quote I used to watch the old NFL, then along came this league of ‘inferiors,’ the AFL,” he says. “But we used to love to watch those games. And the Bills had some really good teams, man. And it’d be snowing, just like our game with Indy a couple of years ago. People love that stuff. That’s why I hate domed stadiums. I'd post more but I am "limit reached" with the news. Edited November 10, 2019 by boater 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
