In your defense, it is a bit of a Buffalo tradition to tear up perfectly good plans for a football stadium at the last moment and then do something completely different resulting in numerous lengthy lawsuits. That said, it ain't happening. They could unearth the Ark of the Covenant at the OP site and it's still going there. It ain’t over yet. Remember Bass Pro? The Rainbow Bridge? Anything is possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way they can have it with backdrop of actually falls of Niagara Falls. I once flew as a guest in a C-130 based at NF Air National Guard. They took us up for a quick hop---and lowered the ramp and we were looking down at the falls....and then the Ralph! Pretty wild. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBF81 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Speaking of the new stadium, I didn't see that anyone had posted this. It's about time. Presumably they'll do this monthly. I would think that there'd be more excavation and earth-moving equipment there, what they have seems oddly sparse. Gonna take longer than expected at that rate. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaRun Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 With the RV lot being taken over for the build is the brick washroom still around behind Hammers? Or did that come down? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacka Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Went by there yesterday. You can see the hole now from Abbot Road. The dirt from the hole is piled up along Southwestern next to the entrance to ECC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Super Fan Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 They probably want to pour that concrete before winter and then the steel will start going up. They are making good construction progress in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the home opener I would leave at least 30 minutes earlier than usual just to see how the traffic/parking will play out. It will be an inconvenience for the next 3 years.

I’m hoping to watch the idiots try and show up at normal times and complain they can’t find parking spots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing happened to fans who tried to show up at normal times when MetLife was being built right next to Giants Stadium which reduced the parking spots significantly.

Personally I don’t think much parking is or will be lost. Most of the lot that has been blocked off has been used for campers. And some busses. I personally don’t know anyone that parks over there. I haven’t been in that lot in over 20 years. It’s a very large lot, but not a lot of cars park there and tailgate. Even over the past few years the Bills cut parking out of that lot and created corporate tailgating. Yes, it will cut out some parking but I personally don’t feel like too much will be effected. We will see as time goes on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
