PetermansRedemption Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) I read this a few minutes ago and my first thought was, why did they even bother releasing this statement. They say they met to discuss the results of an independent study, at least say something of what that study said.

gjv001 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Increase capacity to 80,000, add a dome, through in a few corridor trinkets and upgrades and be done with it. 2 2 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give their network the ability to prime a story, maybe start working on some subtle change management, test out some different word combinations to see what drives engagement through some AB testing, etc. Actually, they're probably reading this right now... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Let Wegmans pay for part of it, and they can have restaurants and supply the food. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm usually not a conspiracy type but considering how long the NFL has been on the Bills to upgrade their stadium, it would be much easier to ask for stadium funding after a Super Bowl win. Just saying. 9 minutes ago, Virgil said: Let Wegmans pay for part of it, and they can have restaurants and supply the food. 6 minutes ago, Draconator said: That's actually not a bad idea That won't happen. But you know who would probably pay for that? Delaware North Corporation. The people who are in the business of $14 beers.

This is a good idea imo, but last I heard Wegmans was not interested in name recognition at the stadium, although a long term food and beverage contract might motivate Danny... 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wegmans aint going to change their business model and insurance for a few extra bucks and a big investment in one stadium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blitz Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 So we're all still a "no" on a dome? The way we play football in 2021 and we're still a no? Not me. I'm all in. Put a lid on it watch how loud we get plus I guarantee we get a Super Bowl - oh yeah you bet your tail if I'm Pegula I'm leveraging that somehow. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
