I worked in interactive tv back in the '90's and they were already trying to develop patents for things like this, but data transmission was too slow. With 5G and the ability to transfer data at lightning speeds, premium interactivity will be the new rage.

njbuff Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Why don't these officials just ask their constituents what they think instead of enforcing these things? I, for one, do not fear the virus and would gladly attend Bills games, or any other NFL and/or college games for that matter. We have been living in fear for 5 months now. It's time for us to get over ourselves. If I have to wear a mask in the stadium,, I will do it. Life is a risk and being told not to do something in this country after being locked down for 5 months just doesn't fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 It’s all but assured the Bucs aren’t going to have fans either. They stopped selling tickets a couple of weeks ago, and with the spike, it’s just a matter of time before the three FL teams close down their stadiums.

Have you ever played football on a decent level? These guys are constantly competing for jobs and their careers. You go half speed, you’re going to get cut or injured. It’s like UFC. Obviously a crowd helps but it’s still a battle and you can’t go at it half speed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg S Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I just got e-mail from the Jets this morning. I am a Jets season ticket holder despite being a Bills fan. While yesterday's announcement said there will be no fans at games but if things change they will sell individual tickets and season ticket holders get first crack at them. I am not holding my breath but it would great if that happened as I would definitely get the Bills game if this were the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
