Jerry Jones company overseeing the stadium project just doesn’t feel right to me. Only time will tell if they do a good job, but…

 

F Jones and F the Cowboys. 

They’ve done DOZENS of stadium projects. Legends is EXACTLY who you hire to do this. They’ve hired away top talent from pro sports teams since they came into existence. The people running Legends are “the best of the best” from around the sports industry. Mike Tomon is the COO & Mike Ondrejko heads up sales. These are seasonsed sports executives that have done this job on the team side. 
 

Fun fact, my cousin’s husband works for them and was approached about running the Bills project. They obviously have the family connections here and he’s a big Bills fan (he’s not from WNY though). He has some pretty serious health issues though so he didn’t do it. He’s a very, very, very smart young guy. If your concerns are “Legends” you can rest easy. They are the best in the world.

wouldn’t  that DECREASE “wind confusion”?

Wind confusion?  I have a problem with confusion of the phrase “very close”. 😂

This isn’t “Jerry Jones.” This is the best sports management company in the world that Jerry Jones owns some of. They run EVERY big project. This is something that we should be EXCITED for.

 

Too many people get themselves all twisted up without even knowing what they’re mad about. The people on the Legends side have WAY more experience than Ron Raccuia. The Bills hired the best firm in the world to oversee the biggest project in franchise history. This is a great thing for the franchise and WNY. We need to understand that. 10 minutes ago you were “concerned” with it. That would be like your concern about the Bills being “Josh Allen is our QB.” That’s a positive not a negative. Legends involvement, all but ensures, it will stay on the timeline and completed to the vision that they have. They’re the most capable of getting this from here to completion.

I expected it to slope outwards but will there be a perimeter so you cant really be right next to the stadium on the outside?  For safety reasons?

Someone else already answered but, yes. Once again the biggest challenge is rain. There’ll be a significant gutter system to capture and direct runoff.

But... but... but... that's not the Bills way.  The Bills way is to hire some company new to the business, install their product (like turf or heated seats), then have that company go out of business in 5 years, so there's no service and support.  Are you saying maybe they've decided to do things differently?  

 

(yes, sarcasm)

Okay.  Relax.  Nothing personal against you, your friend, or anything you think about the company. 
 

Just wondering if everytime I type “F Jones”, if you will come back with another lengthy defense of his company?

 

…and oh by the way, F Jones and the Cowboys. 😉

Not sure on this debate here, but both BTB and KJ are good guys.  Just shake hands, and hug it out.  One of you use a YouTube joke thing and moving onto the Rams.

 

It does sound like this stadium is well thought out and balances the increased costs by not passing on a dome cost to the fans.  I love the ideas of above ground, tarps, heated seats, a more vertically built stadium, still we’re Buffalo.  We play games outside.  There’s no excuses once done to not head to games in November and December.

 

I love what I’m reading.

Hahaha.  All is good…except Jerry Jones!   😂😂

 

 

PS Let’s see how much anyone loves Legends when ticket & PSL prices are announced.

I knew you would be cool about it.  KJ will too.  We have enough of the occasional troll to flame or ignore.  KJ is a bills fanatic through and through as are you.

Ignorance spreads around here. As someone that is informed I find it my duty to educate. When people spread MISINFORMATION it is even more important. You’re welcome!!

wind diffusion?

No, we're going to confuse the wind until it agrees to behave properly. Personally, I hope there is a plan so that once the wind is adequately trained, we can get it to mess with the opposition field goals and the like.

That's like getting Peterman to not throw an interception

The same company that designed Tottenham stadium is designing Bills stadium.
 

I’m guessing this is exactly what we should expect. A flexible roof. In this video the winds are 100+ mph. It’s designed to move like that. Imagine seeing the roof moving at a Bills game?

 

 

I really hope they take inspiration from European stadiums by making the stands steeper and closer to the field
