Toronto's FAN 590 radio station has reported that Argonauts and Hamilton Tiger-Cats season-ticket holders will have the first opportunity to buy tickets, followed by Bills season-ticket holders. The station also reported that the average ticket price for games will be $250, and buyers would have to buy tickets for all eight games to be played in Toronto through 2012.

That's a significant increase over ticket prices at Ralph Wilson Stadium, which average about $46 each.

I have to say im with freeman on this one. I am really pissed that I am going to miss 5 regular season games not mention towards the end of the year (so I heard). What if we are in the playoff hunt for once? Can you imagine not being able to see the game all because they want to get some canadian fans involved? I am sorry, but they can go without as far as I am concerned because we are the ones who have been waiting so patiently for a contending team and pumping our money into this team. I drive 4 hours each way to see this team play and this is the thanks I get?

If everyone would spend their tailgating and casino bucks on tickets you wouldn't have worry about losing the team.

If it's against the Patriots it'll be worth it.

This is just the worst thing that could happen for the Bills staying in Buffalo. If they can get that much money a game from the people in Toronto then there isn't any chance in hell that a new owner and the NFL would not want the team there when that day comes.

The average cost is 250.

What does that mean though? Are there a lot of very expesive seats on the 50 yard line jacking up the average? are the upper levels 250? I don't know I am asking.

I would easily thrown down 250 to go to the game but I think it is ubsurd to make you have to pay 1250 for all of them.
