Highmark Stadium now requiring vaccination for entry


StHustle
Message added by Hapless Bills Fan,

LISTEN UP!
 

We need a discussion thread for the highly relevant issue of new HIghmark Stadium vaccination requirements - how to handle vaccine card requirements, apps, how to re-sell tickets if desired, refund policy and consequences, stadium entry concerns etc.

 

Please try to refrain from becoming an internet epidemiologist or virologist, and recall that there are many many other places on the interwebs to have general political or covid-19 discussion. 

Keep it directly related to Highmark Stadium and to Bills Football, Please

 

That Is All.  Thanks People!

I don’t think you know what a strawman is… you keep using it in multiple replies to things that aren’t strawman arguments.  
 

I did present you a hypothetical.  A hypothetical based on Highmark Stadium covid protocols.  
 

You can literally sit next to an unmasked, vaccinated fan with covid under these guidelines.  
 

Luckily, you’re safe from people like me who have natural immunity from a recent covid infection recovery and would be willing to present a negative rapid covid test at the gates.  

Agree they should have went further and require a rapid test before entry. Agree with you.

Ticket prices will plummet. Is there a protest planned yet?

You mean tickets that are already bought and now being sold on the secondary market?  Yeah Don’t care. That’s great I can scoop more up cheap.

Will they?

With the phased introduction, I very much doubt it. If the "fully vaccinated" requirement were in place for the next home game, I suppose you'd see after-market prices go down since a lot of people would need to dump tickets right away. But let's track this. Would've been better to start yesterday, but today will do. Lowest priced stubhub tickets for the Dolphins home game Oct 31 (first "fully vaccinated only" game) are $90. Compare: lowest price for the WFT game a week from Sunday is ... $90!

Let's see if the 10/31 prices start to drop as non-vaxxers dump tickets. I doubt it ...

Who wants to talk Dolphins. 
 

vaccines, the horse dewormer, UV lights up and Lysol in the body, Zync, Masks, passports etc are ALL more Effective than the Dolphins. 

 

I should undoubtedly remove this, but IMHO it sets an awesome new standard in Talking Trash about our next opponent

 

So I just can't

Lol I tried to pick everything from both sides of the arguments to try and keep it as a nice piece of trash talk and a little laugh. But if you have to remove I understand LMAO 🤣 just please no more points.

Buy them and give them to the most belligerent drunken short fuse biker you can find.   Make sure he has neck tattoos first.   Give them to him.   Tell him the opposing team fans that sit near you think bikers are all gay men who pretend to be tough guys.

 

That should do it. 😆

I like the way Polish guys think! Who says it takes three of us to screw in a light bulb 💡!

 

@Mike in Horseheads... You're fired! 

 

Sorry... Only enough work for two brilliant minds now!

I'm still waiting to here how many games in Buffalo you were going to go to

 


I have no clue why this matters to you.  Potentially 1 or 2 in Buffalo.  1 or 2 down here in the south.  Have tickets to Jacksonville and looking at potentially Tennessee. 
 

Have been waiting to see how all this plays out. 
 

That being said, I stand up for a lot of people who are facing issues that don’t directly affect me.   Do you not?

I despise what you’re saying, but at least you’re telling the truth.  I know this isn’t about the safety of fans attending the stadium.   If it was, the best way of protection (negative covid tests) would be allowed.

 

LOL everyone's an epidemiologist and a clinical pathologist

 

I don't know that.

 

Would other measures (Covid tests) be about as effective or more effective?  Perhaps, but the logistics of testing 70,000 people even with a rapid antigen test are formidable, and those rapid antigen tests still have a pretty low sensitivity (false negative rate)

 

Me, I think what woulda been a "win" is if everyone wore their masks last Sunday when and where they were supposed to, and then that woulda remained the "airborne disease infection control plan" going forward.  But That Ship has Sailed

As sophomoric as it sounds, I got the jab mostly because there were rumblings earlier this year that they would probably be required. The irony that I’m coming up for the WFT game is palpable. 

 

Is there an vaccine passport app that works across states? Or is it just bring your card to the stadium?
