Do you live in WNY?  Last winter there as a guy that posted a time lapse of his driveway. He had  a heated glycerol system  in his concrete driveway (even showed the system in the video).Still ended up with a couple of feet of snow on it (even though it was les than what as on the lawn).

Absolutely correct.  I had a good laugh at this guys post.  There’s multiple feet on the ground in certain locations. You’re not going to melt that much snow with a radiant heat system. 

 

This build should be for a covered structure. End of story. All you have to do is look at the inconveniences and all the work for these two games, it’s ridiculous.

Lucas Oil field: 750 million. under 1b in today's dollars. has a roof. was deemed nice enough to host a SB and several final fours. 

so clearly some sections were a little bit of a free for all, and others weren't. probably differed whether in a section with bleachers versus seats. and most likely everybody had to at least sit in their own section. at least to start the game. 

You can't compare Indiana and it's cheaper labor and minimum wage to NY with it's insane taxes, $15 an hour minimum and labor unions out the ying-yang

 

Everything is wayyy more expensive... Including stadiums 

 

Inflation in NY is crazy

Stop. If I moved my house to WNY it would gain a 1/4 million dollars more.

 

And... I live on the Indiana line.

Western New York still has to pay New York taxes... And our labor unions keep costs up

 

And minimum wage is double what it is in Indiana keeping inflation around the state

 

There is a massive reason why the stadium is costing what it is... New York inflation

The stairs were extremely dangerous. Unless OBD wants more lawsuits coming their way (I've already heard one from someone slipping on the stair) I suggest they bust out the flamethrowers.


Stairs were brutal upper deck. I biffed it hard myself, and was stone cold sober.

Sorta. As you pointed out, the fans are actually paying Pegula's portion via PSL's.

 

He's still kicking in over $300MM, and probably more as this project goes on.

So here's an update for all the TBD snow removal experts / dome drama queens

 

According to local news:

 

Over 500 people showed up to shovel, some from as far away as Syracuse. So many that some had to be turned away.

 

The lower bowl is almost completely cleared as of Friday night.

 

The entire stadium and all concourses will be completely cleared by Saturday night.

 

Any snow that falls late Saturday night and Sunday (predicting 1 inch) will simply have to be swept off your seat.

Reached out to my rep and sounds like it will be business as usual and that the “no assigned seats” thing was not accurate. Figured we’d have heard a lot more about it if that was the case.

He doesn't know where the rumor came from that there will be no assigned seats or why it got any traction? 

 

Not one idea Zack? Could it be that your normal snow removal efforts this week look like the same snow removal efforts last week?
