    Stadium Parking going up!

    I just saw this on Two Bills Drive and the person who posted it is really close with the higher ups on the team and definitely has connections. So I trust her. She actually has posted on here sometimes too. #89.

    Anyways, this is what she said....

    What a load of ****! I can't believe that the Bills would be that stupid to jump $10 per car when they already raised the tickets the highest they have ever increased them.

      That is insane. Ralph what are you doing to the fans.

      Looks like car pooling is an affordable option.

        Well looks like I will only see the bills at the Sports bar.

        Reasons:

        1. High Gas Prices

        2. Holiday Inn raised their prices

        3. Ticket Prices are no longer affordable

        4. $25.00 for parking just seals it.

          Comon....just put 5 people in the car and go. It went up from 3$ a person to $5. If you're driving by yourself, it's your own fault for not planning better. Of course, I'm sure there are exceptions and a few people don't have the option. If you're driving your 2-seater sports car to the game, then that's a bummer, but I don't feel sorry for you.

            not many people go with 5 people. A bunch of people, myself included, go to the games with one other person. We split the costs and all that. But that is still too much damn money! Add it up. Before the price of the ticket...you are now making the gameday experience over $50 on just gas and the parking alone. Now add in food....usually bring a bunch of stuff to grill and some snacks, plus beer ($20)...plus if I buy a drink in the stadium...another $6. Then of course you gotta do something for dinner after the game. We usually stop at the thruway stop. That's another $10. Plus the tolls.... Come on! We are at $100 or more and that's before the cost of a ****ing ticket. This is getting ridiculous and it's why I believe that the NFL will price regular, hardcore fans out of it.

              There are still ways around it. While you are only going with one other person, I bet you know more than one other oerson who is going. Meet at someone's house and carpool it.
              Maybe someone can set up a carpooling thread to help fellow zoners and put a sticky on it.
              Just an idea.

                IT is still cheaper than most cities.

                If they sell out, why not raise prices?

                Finally people want Ralph to spend money but are not willing to spend it themselves.

                    did they forget that we are coming off a season with 4 blacked out games? That's half the ****ing season. Why on Earth would they get this risky? Especially when they won't even pay the money to sign Walker and we still have a lot of money under the cap.

                      Does Walker deserve what he is asking for?

                        do you know what he is asking for? Because IMO, he'd be the best DT on our line and I'd easily give him what Tripplett is getting.

                          And the point is still that an increase in parking is fine. Actually I expected it. But to increase it $10 per game is ****ing ridiculous!!!

                            Pretty steep raise IMO, the upside is it will probably thin out some traffic and pollution as a result due to more carpooling.

                              good point. There will definitely be a lot more car pooling.
