Mr. WEO Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 15 minutes ago, WotAGuy said: Canadians are a non-factor in attendance but are a big factor in the number of resale tickets available, which is the point of the OP. 500 tickets available means it is nearly a sellout already. None of the Canadian resale has changed in the positive—certainly it should be down since the border opened up. Before that, I assume all Canadians put tickets on resale September to November—yet attendance was still up. US fans snapped them all up.

GottaRun Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) 48 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: Has something changed in the last week making it harder for Canadians to enter the US? The US just opened the border for nonessential travel in November. Yes something changed in mid December. We now have to do a PCR test in the US for trips under 72 hours in order to return to Canada. I've got to do a $100 same day PCR test to go to the game Saturday night.... well to come home, but you get the idea. According to the Bills Canadians make up around 10% of season ticket holders, so it's a factor. Also - if I happen to test positive on that PCR test I am stuck in the US until I get a negative test, so hotels, food, more tests. The cost can add up. I've waited too long for a home playoff game so I'll take the risk, but it's easy to understand why others won't.

That is a significant amount! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, I'll be watching from the couch with a drink in my hand. Warm and toasty. There was 20,500 tickets remaining but I bought 20,000 myself to help. Merry F’ing Christmas. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northeastern folks are nothing like Midwesterners when it comes to this stuff. Enough of that horseshit. Not that Pats fan part, carry on with that.

Yes, as far as the Bills are concerned. They sold every ticket. Resale? Still plenty to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if people needed to travel and spend the night there would be no need to take time off of work. I heard -3 with the wind chill, but would not figure that would scare Bills fans off... -3 Not for me. I will stay at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
