I want to catch one last game at Rich Stadium late in the year...

[SoonerBillsFan]

Which one(s) would you guys suggest? I was thinking Cinci or Philly.

[Virgil]

I went with the Jets.  I have to think that if the Bills are going to celebrate the stadium in any game, it would that one 

[Gregg]

Jets. Final regular season game in the stadium that has been around 52 years. 

[mushypeaches]

I suggest the AFC Championship game on Sunday 1/25/26

Got bad news for you.  The Bills are expected to end up having games at the Ralph in 2026 due to missed deadlines.

Hope you are right about that game being played in OP but that is not guaranteed.

Yeah but I want to See Josh in Full action. We know he will against Philly, and whatever slot we get playoff wise should be sewn up before the Jests game

The Jets game could be a glorified exhibition game if the Bills have the division and their seeding locked up. Unless you have tickets on your phone that they scan to enter in the stadium it would be pretty cool to keep the ticket stub from this game being that it's the last regular season game ever at the stadium.

I mean...if this is something you're legitimately hearing, and from a source that you deem trustworthy...you really ought to say more 😅

No They are not 

 

 they literally said that the stadium will not be 100% completed by September of 2026 but it will be operational and ready to hold a football game with fans 

 

Just not 100% complete

I'm curious to see what they believe fans won't need. Bathrooms? Concessions? %10 of seats still missing?

It's probably just some finishing touches 

 

I'm sure all the bathrooms and concessions and seats will be there 

 

It will probably be like finishing touches

[Bills!Win!]

Imagine another Covid and we have no fans in the seats

 

how many dislikes can I get?

We did a tour of Raymond James Stadium in Tampa once. We went to the press boxes, the locker rooms, the Pirate Ship, walked on the field (it was like a putting green), etc. there are  countless things that can need finishing that will not affect the fan experience in any way. That’s a fact.

The little extra touches are always nice.  😊

They will still be going back around filling in all the nail holes in the woodwork all season.

There will not be enough time to shine the troughs.  We're going to be pissing on some rough cut metal.  The splashback COULD be noticeable. Emphasis on the COULD.  Can't stress that enough.

They'll just have to be careful of the random worker carrying a 2X4 across the field during warmups.

Yes that would be an awesome thing to go 1 more time . I did the Luke Combs tour last year so I got to go down on the field & come in through the tunnel and then we went up stairs to catering so I got to see quite a bit of the building walked all over the entire field and you can see the age in the old girl in spots .

 

But man if those walls could talk OMG what stories that could tell !! Not sure I'll be able to get up there for another game but it sure would be nice !!
