wiseman3 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 It's covid policy adjustments. Not the new stadium. Either masks, vaccinations or testing. Something like that 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I went to a big concert in Cali where they mandated mask-wearing for everyone. 100% were wearing it when entering. Probably 30% were wearing it in the stadium. So, I don't think a mask mandate is going to make a difference. If that's what it is, then I guess it's just for optics. I doubt they actually believe it would be followed or enforceable. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great if they at least tried to enforce the indoor mask policy that was supposed to be in place.

davefan66 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Gonna be an unpopular mandate. Like said above, probably a negative Covid test or vaccinated. In no way do they have the workforce to enforce masking in the corridors. Or outside for that matter. Thought it was supposed to masks for unvaccinated at all times. Under 10% masked. National vaccination rates at 51% currently… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) From a general sense, I felt a little bit "dirty" being anywhere indoors or out with 70,000 people. I just got off the phone with a buddy who got married this weekend who said the same thing about his wedding, and that was only about 100 people. Surprisingly, I had people mock me about wearing my mask in line for entry to the stadium. The people in my section asked me WTF I was wearing a mask when I got back from the bathroom and went on a rant about mask wearing being a bunch of trash. There was no enforcement of masks indoors, bathrooms, etc. Maybe it was just my own assumption, but not a single person at the gates checked for vaccine cards or negative covid tests. Maybe it is because I have the NYS passport on my phone, when I download my ticket, it automatically authorizes it, but I never provided any of that information to anybody getting my tickets or going through the gate. I have to say, as much as I love the Bills, it was rather uncomfortable for a number of reasons, part of them my own, but a good chunk not. If the Pegula's are unwilling to enforce and/or mandate certain requirements to keep people safe, I am glad the county is stepping in. EDIT: For all the eye rolls, vomit, etc. responses. I am in my mid-30's with an extensive athletic background. I am on gabapentin for neuropathy and colchecine for an enlarged heart, both due to Covid in December. I lost family who did the whole "if you are scared stay home" thing, until they had to go to the hospital because of a trip and fall. That person then gave it to my grandfather (they lived together) who now has congestive hear failure due to covid. He went to the hospital with complications and never came home and has since sold the house. I got covid from him, because there was nobody else to take care of him while he was sick, pre hospitalization. It is no joke out there guys.

Cheektowaga Chad Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I'm hoping they are announcing enforcement of the mask wearing rather than jumping straight to vaccine and or negative tests Like actually try, don't be lazy or look for an easy out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Caveman Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) It's so goddamn frustrating that people are making jokes about this. I've had too many friends die of this disease, and it's just infuriating that we know how to stop its spread, and people refuse to take the simple steps to do so. I'll try to stay out of this thread going forward (I'm guessing it won't stay unlocked for long anyway.)
