The governor was in town to mark the Buffalo Bills home opener, and the 10-year agreement keeping the Bills in town. He also said the Buffalo Bills belong in Erie County and Western New York, as he stopped at Ralph Wilson Stadium briefly before the team’s home opener.
“There’s a new energy in Buffalo,” the governor said, as he marked the beginning of the new season and the 10-year agreement with the Bills to keep the team in Orchard Park, making it the only NFL franchise to actually play its games in New York State.
The deal, announced in December, calls for $130 million in stadium upgrades split among the state, county and the team.
“There’s going to be a new stadium with a new lease on life with a 10-year commitment from the Bills to stay right here in Buffalo,” Cuomo said. “I think 2013 is going to be a lucky year.” http://www.buffalonews.com/city-regi...-says-20130908
