My issue is please don’t go 90% in cost and F-it up for 20 yrs and a couple bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
without a drought Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I don't have a roof on my house, garage or shed for just this reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDeerInTheHeadlights Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 In light of recent and historical humiliations, they could embroider "we always come up short" on that short canopy. Bad joke, I know. Just trying to laugh this L off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"partial" roof. In 2022... just can't do it yet. 🤣 But after decades of time where we have asked the question: 'what if we could build another stadium'... we finally have our opportunity to take all that we have learned & build a new stadium & what do we come up with? We build an even smaller stadium right next to the old one. That pretty much sums up the bar to pass around here lol. An opportunity to do something big or beneficial for this community & region & we line up at the trough like pigs hungry to eat up the bs they feed us because we're what, just happy the team is staying? Some will defend these designs to the death. Others like myself feel from the very start strategically speaking we already have failed. In size, scale, location, in its ability to generate revenue & pay back its costs outside of a handful of games each year? To being designed with the local weather in mind. One could literally go on & on with this failure of imagination & planning & process. This whole thing is a big crock of bs imho, something only we would **** up to this degree. It has nothing to do with the technology, it has to do with the COST to implement that technology. After that first sentence in your reply, the rest of you post is not worth responding to, let a long even reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Gump Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Those renderings look pretty accurate. Full of empty seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bills can find a worse way to lose other than wide right, music city miracle, 13 seconds and whatever today will be known as.....they will find one somehow. It's really really getting old.

jletha Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 This is interesting: The new field is going to be heated to prevent snow accumulation and the whole stadium will be designed with snow removal in mind. https://theathletic.com/3921584/2022/11/22/bills-snow-stadium-detroit/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoPoy88 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Just now, jletha said: This is interesting: The new field is going to be heated to prevent snow accumulation and the whole stadium will be designed with snow removal in mind. https://theathletic.com/3921584/2022/11/22/bills-snow-stadium-detroit/ it’s an excellent idea, and I believe Lambeau has a similar system, but it does little to prevent possible game relocations like the one we just had. A crippling blizzard means no one can get to the fancy stadium with the heated turf in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
