GottaRun Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 2 hours ago, Warriorspikes51 said: The comments about fans gathering “at the front door” not just on gamedays is interesting. Perhaps something like a Bills Hall of Fame / Football museum, some sort of bar / food services with a field view, and a hotel... yes the hotel would be booked year round - plenty of people travelling on the I-90 that need hotel rooms... I think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 a Front Door could also be something like the US Bank Stadium Legacy Gates, which are basically doors that are the entire wall that open on nice days.

IDK, it's always interesting to me that there's really not much near the stadium, maybe this could be a catalyst... 2 hours ago, Brianmoorman4jesus said: You’d think 3 or 4 hotels close by would make sense. I highly doubt it. The current stadium was not a catalyst for anything and there is less in the area now. With no other destinations - any bars/hotels have to live on essentially 9 dates a year - it is not going to work. They need something on the property that drives business the other 340 days. A couple of big casinos, several new businesses moving there from other locations, a nice music venue for smaller concerts, an outside summer league soccer team to play in the stadium 25 times during the summer, etc. The stadium with NFL can not support anything else in OP - it never has and it really won’t. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the future stadium going Bills fan is going to most likely want to not freeze or get any type of weather environment on them. That is assuming the new Bills stadium is even viable in 10 years in Orchard Park because who knows? I wish the Buffalo Bills the best because I am Buffalo Bills fan but this new Bills stadium doesn’t really excite me personally as a Bills fan because the location is wrong and no dome again good luck. I like the Buffalo Sabres, Buffalo Bisons downtown set up with Canalside and the future neighborhood going to be built there. That is Buffalo future thinking long term not this shortsighted mess again in Orchard Park. I never liked Highmark Stadium because it was single sport with a few concerts use that lacked any type of excitement beyond the tailgate lots. Highmark stadium was scaled down from the dome it was suppose to be with Major League Baseball team for Buffalo so it was never a stadium that was great it was like the HSBC tower downtown and the Niagara Falls Convention Center urban renewal done shortsighted and poorly planned. Niagara Falls Convention Center should have been double the size for the Buffalo Braves NBA as the main tenant not Niagara Purple Eagles basketball. If that happened the Buffalo Braves NBA might have survived in Western New York remember no Toronto Blue Jays or Toronto Raptors we missed the boat on so many things like always just shortsighted and failure. Again tailgating isn’t really special I tailgate at UB Stadium every week for the UB Bulls football team what the Bills have tailgate wise is way overrated it isn’t special I can tailgate at UB Stadium. Speaking of UB stadium is another stadium that needs TLC like getting rid of the track and a new scoreboard again shortsighted nothing from WNY and NYS leaders just a joke. So no I am not Buffalo fan saying our leaders are wonderful we have a new Bills stadium that serves nothing but the Bills it isn’t a WNY community benefit it should be unfortunately. The Buffalo Bills didn’t invent tailgating. I get it we are poor in WNY with bad economic growth forever be proud tailgating outside in Orchard Park with nothing else beyond that which is ridiculous. Again even that new Bills stadium built at UB Amherst serves WNY more than Orchard Park because the university can use the stadium so it wouldn’t have been just a Bills stadium. We are forever shortsighted again in WNY there is nothing the Buffalo Bills are announcing with the new Bills stadium that is better than Key Bank Center Sahlen’s Field setup with Canalside. One can tailgate anywhere people tailgated at Sahlen’s Field for taste of country concert.

Heitz Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I like that the grenade that I threw into this thread, was suggesting that maybe other things could be built around the stadium. I'm going to stand by desire for a nice hotel near the stadium - I love me an RV for the opener, but I'd prefer a nice bed and room within walking distance to the stadium (I want to feel what it's like to be Hammer), maybe a few other bars to go to on a Saturday, I might even shop and buy some Buffalo merch - who knows! Regardless, I'm super excited to see the render of the new building and for our team to have a new home, roof, or no roof! GO BILLS!! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
