All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Four Bills games at risk of blackouts
by Gene Warner
Each of the three December home games - against Jacksonville, St. Louis and the New York Jets - has roughly 20,000 tickets still available, Brandon said. And the Bills' lone prime-time home game, the Thursday night date with the Miami Dolphins, still has about 9,000 tickets left.
They were making a big deal this past week that San Diego was able to sell out their opening game...............at the last minute. If the Bills are out of the playoff race, I don't think it should be a surprise or big deal if they don't sell out those games.
Sorry, Russ, but not many people are going to be willing to fill the stadium for meaningless games in December, especially when your team hasn't sniffed the playoffs since the Clinton Administration
IMO, the weather has zero to do with it... The fact that you peddle an inferior product is why the fans aren't showing up... Last December, IIRC, wasn't bad at all, weather-wise.
Perhaps Brandon and the Bills should consider themselves lucky that they have three sellouts already, considering we saw the results of the on-field product last week.
You wanna "move inventory," as you call it, Russ? Better the team to move the number in the win column up. Surely, a "marketing genius" like yourself can figure this out...
That's one of the drawbacks of having home games in December, but if the Bills are still alive for a playoff spot, they should sell out. The Thursday game should sell out regardless of the record. In the 90's I would of loved 3 home games in December, then it seemed like the cold and snow was such an advantage, these days it doesn't seem like such an advantage and not just for the Bills, northern teams just don't seem to have as big as a winter home game edge.
