It's not a "rust belt" city anymore (neither are PIT or CLE, either). Before it was a "rust belt city" it was something else. Now it's trying (hopefully) to transition into a tech/banking/medical city. Whatever - blue collar then. It's Buffalo - it will never be silicon valley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextmanup Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 He mentioned that the seats are going to be steeper, so as you go higher in the stadium, you don't go far away from the field...like the old Aud was. That would be great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Given the new stadium with be completely above ground (below ground current one encourages the swirling winds, and the guy this morning stated on WGR it will be a more vertical view should mean better sight views. It’s also different than Seattle as it’s a 360 tarp so should really cut down on the weather issues. I just wish it were 70,000 seats as they already on the current season are just north of 60,000 season ticket holders. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like 4 days a week… They’re all blue collar over there I don’t know any doctors or physical therapists or bankers on the east side.. They’re all in clearance and Williamsville and East aurora The city is blue-collar… The suburbs are white collar Edited August 8, 2022 by Buffalo716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiltonWaddams Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I know it’s not gonna be a dome stadium, but if it was I would hope it would be as good as the stadium in Minnesota. Those guys have it really good out there. Because it’s going to have that steep sides in the upper deck, they better build strong railings. I have vertigo and it really isn’t fun climbing those steps in Seattle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo1105 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Its 100% going to look like a UEFA Soccer Stadium in my opinion. I think its Jeremy who said it and he's spot on. All the new ones have the exact same details and have about the same seating capacity as to what the Bills were looking for around 60,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriorspikes51 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 The comments about fans gathering “at the front door” not just on gamedays is interesting. how about a massive Buffalo statue to break the world record of the one in North Dakota as the entrance to the stadium? could be an attraction year round if you put restaurants near there too Get really awesome and make it hollow with a mueseum inside of Bills history 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heitz Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I wonder if any other new development pop-up around the new stadium? I nice big hotel nearby would be amazing, as would a few other bars (not that we all don't love our Big Tree and Danny's time), a brewery maybe. IDK, it's always interesting to me that there's really not much near the stadium, maybe this could be a catalyst... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
