The Buffalo Bills have been granted an extension by the NFL to sell out this Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins.

The team now has until 1:00 p.m. on Friday to sell the remaining 5,000 tickets. The Bills requested and were granted the extension.

The team must sell the tickets by Friday at 1:00 p.m. to comply with the National Football League’s Blackout policy. If the game is not sold out by tomorrow’s deadline, the game will not be televised locally.

You are 3 minutes too slow.

[Mitchy moo]

That's too many tickets to sell in one day, it'll never happen. Maybe Ralphy can show his Xmas spirit this year and eat the rest if we get down to about 1000 or so.

That would be nice

[Bufftp]

My guess they have a few corporations in line to buy 2-3k if they get it down.

I agree. Some places will buy the tickets (likely Ralph will buy some too) and they are just trying to get the count down.

Tops, Wegmans, Channel 4, etc. will likley all pitch in!

[patmoran2006]

Wishful thinking..

This game is getting blacked out, and this team is in HUGE and i mean HUGE trouble (and im not talking about for the game either)

[Dr. Lecter]

If it was in huge trouble NYS would not be putting 20 million into the stadium.

[Ebenezer]

If it was in huge trouble NYS would not be putting 20 million into the stadium.
band-aid on a gaping wound...the real question is whether the next owner feels that the stadium can generate enough revenue to equal or come close to that being made by the Snyder's and Jones's.

[Michael82]

The remaining 3-4,000 tickets will be bought by one of the local corporations. That's what usually happens. :up:

I'm sorry- but I always LMAO with these panic attack - type posts.


Let's go a few seasons without sellouts- not a month. Geesh!


But where would a message board be without over -reacting?

[PECKERWOOD]
