Lower bowl, visitor side, 48 yard line 

Oh jeez, didn't realize it was that much per seat.

 

I love sitting in the endzone, 2 rows off the field and $2k per PSL.  Insane how much variation there is.

Please a senior game opponent so we can  enjoy it

[Captain Hindsight]

Imagine if they were like nah, give us a 1pm against the Jets

[NewEra]

Ugh. I figured this would be the case.  First game in the new stadium + Brady’s first game as HC + the nations favorite player.  
 

I would love to play 17 regular season games with a 1pm est kickoff.

King Goodell isn't going to want to sit through a ho-hum 1:00pm start watching the Bills beat up the Jets. It's definitely a primetime game. Against whom is anybody's guess.

I’ve informed the league I’m open to employment as an official insider.  So far they haven’t met my contract demands.  Tagliabue is cheap…  

Which coach did they assign you there, Tiger? It seems Vrabel is taken.

[Gregg]

According to this the week of May 11th is the week the schedule gets released. Sounds about right as the schedule usually gets released in mid-May now.

Damn it, it should be a 1:00 pm game, who’s with me on this ?  Lol

A true insider never reveals anything.

Is this like “requesting a trade”?

I personally love and prefer 1pm games. To me there’s just something about tailgating from the morning until a 1pm kickoff that’s just the best.

Thanks boss.  From everything I've seen, our seats will be completely in the shade the entire game.  I'm honestly curious to see how the sun and shadows affects the players on the field.  Leave it to us to create a Dallas situation where players can't see downfield based upon the time of day

 

Is this post like the bat signal for @Einstein?

1:00 is my favorite start time as well. But I don't mind the primetime games either as it means the Bills are doing well.

[Just Jack]

I said it before, we'll get all the night games, TNF, SNF, MNF. And maybe some of the special ones, like Thanksgiving night, Black Friday, maybe Christmas Eve.

Isn't there a max on how many primetime games a team can get. The Bills will probably get 3 or 4 along with a few 4:25 starts for the Sunday afternoon game broadcast to the entire country.

100% Patriots @ Bills to start the season on SNF or MNF 

It won’t be NE as we’ll go to NE first and then have NE at home based upon schedule rotation. Same with MIA.

[Slippery Rubber Mats]

If I'm attending? I want an 8pm start night game. Not rushed in the morning, get all greased up in the parking lot in the afternoon, and the energy of a night game.

 

If I'm watching on TV, yeah 1pm all the way.

I would rather the first game in the new stadium be against the Jets. That would almost guarantee the first game there is a Bills win.

 

You would think, but week 1 is crazy, divisional games are tough, and we lost to the Jets week 1 on prime time a few years ago in one of Allen's worst games. Plus it'll be our first game with a new HC in 9 seasons, so there's going to be some growing pains. 

 

If we had to play any divisional opponent, I'd take the Dolphins. They're almost guaranteed to be worse than the Jets this season.

That would work also. With the Bills asking the league to open the new stadium in primetime and I am sure the league will say yes to the Bills then it will be against a better opponent. The Pats at Bills would be a good choice for the first game in the new stadium in primetime. I bet all four games the Bills play against the Jets and Dolphins will be 1:00 starts.

The shadow is the largest annoyance of the mini canopy.

I wonder how many times we see players drop a ball because they dont see the arc until the last moment.
