Probably the most expensive upgrade, so I decided to buy a snowblower instead. Yeah... Steamboat always has their base perfectly clear even after the mountain getting dumped on with feet. I wonder if they use the geothermal in the area? Edited November 16, 2022 by ExiledInIllinois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could only happen to Buffalo... Can that even happen? I’m genuinely not sure lol I think Watson is suspended a certain amount of games not weeks. The browns game will absolutely be played before any games that are the next week even if that includes moving it to another city. they’d probably have to move it to another city for a Sunday afternoon start and that has to be decided very soon I’d imagine Edited November 16, 2022 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 just close the roof.......oh wait at least the new stadium will have a roof......ok so it doesn't cover the field completely..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheektowaga Chad Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I don't think having a dome would guarantee that the game would be played in Buffalo If the game moves it's for the safety of the fans/employees getting to and from the game. Not because snow. They could easily play in Buffalo in front of no fans, just need the browns to show up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Would make the most sense to move to Detroit...they are on the road and the Bills play there on Thanksgiving which means they could just stay there and practice ahead of the game next Thursday." https://wyrk.com/buffalo-bills-game-cancelled/ Quote Maybe the NFL doesn't move the game. After all, Buffalonians are always there with a shovel and I am sure would be more than willing to shovel out Highmark Stadium in order to get fans inside, at the very least. There were games when Bills repeatedly made help requests for people to shovel and did not get it. Always is an exaggeration in article but what do you expect from a country hick?

Always is an exaggeration in article but what do you expect from a country hick? If they hold the game in Highmark it will be interesting. Would expect a travel ban for much of this lake snows event for Erie County starting late Thursday thru early Sunday to try and keep people off the roads and give them time to work on plowing them without having to deal with traffic and cars getting stuck all over and/or in ditches. Likely will have stretches of the I-90 and 219 closed for 48+ hours as well. Looking at the NOAA forecast that gives details for Thursday night, expected snowfall is 10-16 inches in Depew/Lancaster so it's going to quickly get out of pocket for snow plows right from the get go. It's actually expected to start in the Southtowns/Southern Erie now tonight Edited November 16, 2022 by Big Turk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 PFT put out a Tweet that says the forecast is calling for SIX FEET of snow. Yes they capitalized it. So maybe there are willing it to happen. Have we actually heard 72" in any forecast?!? It's getting more by the minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
