PBF81 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) Some excerpts: A man who told police he had consumed several drugs was ticketed Sunday after he scaled a fence and fell naked into the pit at the construction site for the new Buffalo Bills stadium, Erie County sheriff's officials said. ... He went inside a portable toilet, covered himself in the contents of the toilet before exiting, stripping naked and jumping the 10-foot fence of the construction site. ... As security approached the man, he started running toward the construction site. After scaling the fence, he ran and fell down one level of the pit. Then he got up, ran and fell again, this time to the bottom of the pit, which is about 30 feet below grade. ... As the Sheriff's Office's helicopter, Air One, descended toward the scene, the man – as he laid in the pit – gave the "peace sign" to the crew with one hand while making an obscene gesture with the other, Sheriff John Garcia said. ... While at the construction site, the man told deputies he was under the influence of LSD, marijuana and cocaine. The people the man had been with prior to the game apparently "just abandoned him," Garcia said, and entered the stadium for the game. ... Sounds like the dude had a banner fun day! Eight people were ejected from the stadium during the game, he said. Overall, he called it the "best behaved crowd" at a Bills home game since he became sheriff. I don't know how that compares to the rest of the NFL, but LOL. Edited September 18, 2023 by PBF81 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 8 ejections is a very low number. I wonder how much the traffic pattern disrupted peoples usual tailgate debauchery. Obviously not for the guy above. He was ready, but other people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aristocrat Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 He covered himself in the contents of the porta potty? Dear god the Lysol baths and shots he will be getting is going to be extensive. peace sign on one hand and obscene gesture on the other talk about the duality of man!

Bob Jones Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Don’t live in WNY anymore, but I am curious. The construction site looks rather large, and it looks like a LOT of parking spaces were lost to the construction site…maybe thousands of vehicles? Where do all those vehicles now park for games? Is there room in private lots near the stadium for all the vehicles that would normally park in the space which is now fenced off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buses, limos, and TVs. Overall I’d say not that many spots. Was actually one of the smaller and less busy lots. On game days there was always huge sections that were completely empty. It also used to be parking for employees as it had its own separate entrance right next to hammers lot. the Bills bought the mud lot behind the field house and is now using that as employee parking.

So is there no bus lot at all right now? That might be a big contributor to the low arrests and good behavior. That place always seemed like peak amateur hour because none of them had to drive home. Also, I love that we refer to "the mud lot" and all know what it is. Edited September 18, 2023 by That's No Moon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The major problem was getting to those lots. Traffic was a nightmare, getting in and out. I left an hour earlier from Rochester and traffic was much worse than it normally is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Some details on Tottenham, which the new stadium is based on. 10 things Buffalo Bills fans will love about Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (which inspired new Bills stadium) - newyorkupstate.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Super Fan Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I will say one thing I don’t love about Tottenham Hotspur Stadium the video scoreboards are way too small. They are smaller than what Highmark Stadium I has now. The Buffalo Bills stadium designs the scoreboard looked small and not impressive. Which is a mistake when my television is potentially bigger than the new Buffalo Bills stadium. I personally as a Buffalo Bills fan have a problem with that. I can look at a huge scoreboard at the minor league Buffalo Bisons. Yet our major league NFL stadium is potentially going to have a small video boards? Again hopefully the Buffalo Bills rethink that decision in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don’t think that changes much. I believe you and many others will be left unhappy with it. Hope I’m wrong. We’ll see soon enough.

Let’s Go Buffalo Stadium was built for Football/Soccer… Frequent replays aren’t a thing so large HQ screens aren’t essential. Line-ups, match information, scores and substitutions. Can’t see the new stadium following suit. They’ll have reasonable sized screens to accommodate the need.
