Maybe eventually but, right now, I’m not all that on top of things or well versed on the stadium. Kind of like you and football in general. Thought it was pretty obvious as they have mentioned multiple times in multiple links and videos that it would be taller than the light currently in the old stadium. Didn’t know you were unaware of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 What happened to the drone photos of the stadium? This has turned into the all things related to season tickets thread. Make a separate thread for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if you’ll be able to see the top of the new stadium from the 219 since it’s going to be higher up from ground level. Not sure if the stadium will end up being higher than the cranes currently on site, but from the intersection of Southwestern & Union, you can see the cranes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if we just go to the renderings of the final stadium, ... oh wait, that's right, there aren't any. Seriously though, we know that the entire stadium is above ground unlike Rich, and that is more vertical than broad, so it would seem that it should be notably higher and therefore more visible from notably farther away. Seems that if they're really going to be ready for the '26 season, and my money says it won't be, then the basic structure at least should be up by the '25 Draft a little over a year from now.

Einstein Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Has anyone here been to the timeshare presentation yet? Or gotten an appointment yet? The Bills said it will be a very long waiting list, considering they have 60,000 people to show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you are saying with many Buffalo projects over the years. But in the history of Western New York stadium and arenas for sports franchises going back over 100 years of construction. I study and read a lot about Buffalo sports history. Not one stadium and arena project once the Buffalo team started building it didn’t open on time. Rochester that is another matter with stadium and arena projects. But Buffalo is number one we should all take a tip of the hat that we are very good at getting stadium and arena construction projects done and open on time. Remember most of these workers are local and most likely Buffalo Bills fans. So what I am saying is that there is a little extra excitement working on something they and there families will go to for years compared to building a bridge or a business office tower. Plus Terry Pegula is also good with this stuff the Buffalo Harbor Center and shops opened on time and on schedule. Terry Pegula is a lot of things but I give people credit where it is warranted. Terry Pegula doesn’t mess around with dilly, dally on construction projects he delivers on time and on schedule. Trust me Buffalo are good at building arena and stadium projects on schedule and on time. Building a bridge stuff like that well that is another matter completely. We aren’t talking a complicated football stadium here it will open for the Bills 2026 preseason games. They are ahead of schedule because of Buffalo’s mild winter. Once they get the steal up and the coverage. The inside work can be completed without relying on the Buffalo mild winter weather so much. In the beginning of the foundation and steel stage was really important that Buffalo had a mild winter which thankfully Buffalo did in my opinion. Go Bills!

Well, considering there are 2,000 hours in a standard work year, they’d have to conduct these ten at a time just to get them all done prior to opening day. I mean…..yikes! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bump I'm also interested to know if they will show/tell you pricing for other areas of the stadium, other than the type you have now. Like if you have clubs, will they only discuss clubs, or let you know pricing on other areas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To try and pigeon hole you into similar seats that you had but are now 3x more expensive would only piss people off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 They must not be allowing you to take pictures or video. I would assume we would get leaks by now if they were allowing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume we would get leaks by now if they were allowing it. This is all fascinating. Also, as I quoted several weeks ago, my agent told me that the early visitors (Box seats) WOULD NOT BE OFFERED a chance to buy season tickets in "my section" (which I questioned her words about and she clarified it to mean, "sections similar to your current section (225))". One early visitor has told me he plans to try and surreptiously take some photos during the tour BUT I wonder how the guides/salepeople will police this if he is insistent.....confiscate his phone?!?! End the tour? This is "Merica!" (haha) The secrecy and attempt to control the release of information is really , potentially, going to get beyond annoying. Tell us the damn costs, I say. Show us the damn design. The process is starting to get insulting to Bills fans. Do they think they can trick us or something? Jeesh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Received this info today in email for my appt tomorrow. Looks like no pics. KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: Plan to arrive five minutes early to check in Bring a valid driver's license, passport or state-issued ID Please refrain from taking/sharing any photos so that we can preserve the experience for Bills fans who have not yet had a chance to visit Be prepared to select your New Highmark Stadium seats to cheer on the Bills starting in 2026! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
