Some of the initial pricing on seat licenses has been posted. The Bills will lose their rabid fan base as most won't be able to afford to keep their season tickets. The new Bill's stadium will be like Miami with fans from other teams taking over the stadium. They wanted a new Stadium badly. Careful what you wish for Bills fans. These are club tickets which are a bit more expensive than normal tickets. But still. Mafia will be watching from home.

There is no greed quite like NFL owners greed.

The length and breadth of their avarice seems boundless.

Yeah it never ceases to amaze me how awful they all are. The one unifying element in this league among the fan bases is that everyone would fire their owners.

P.s. ours is the worst

Ross has made some mistakes but he is far from the worst.

The fact that Miami ranks so high on the Player's Union rankings shows that he runs a first class operation and spends his money trying to do everything it takes to win.

How many other owners cost their team draft picks including a first? Doing everything it takes is the problem when that includes tampering.

Obviously the tampering was a huge mistake, but to be fair to Ross he got disproportionately punished by Goodell for that.

Watch and see if anything happens to Atlanta or Philly for tampering with Cousins and Barkley.

The loss of the 1st rounder was wildly unfair to Miami.

But if he had managed to get Brady and Payton and the Fins won a SB you would not be criticising him for tampering.

He also presided over some bad coaching hires and there is mike Tannabaum on his record so I am not really defending him, I just think Miami could have a cheap owner who was running a discount franchise.

I agree that the punishment was way out of proportion, but at the end of the day, Ross is responsible for those lost picks and no other owner has ever managed that before. It would be interesting to try rate the all time worst owners and see what metrics people use.

He's really not.

The majority of the blame for that fiasco falls on Bruce Beal.
 
If they stopped breaking so many tables and saved their money they wouldn't be in this position. They should have a chat with Dave Ramsey
 
This is nothing new. NFL does this league wide. Money.
They do the same thing to those who have to pay for channels to watch games etc.
 
The pricing seems to be secretive. You have to go to Bill's Experience to see what they are going to charge. They haven't released seat map to public for fear of pissing them off all at once.

Some comments from Bills fans

"I'm a 28 year season ticket holder with Toyota Club seats. I went to the Bill's experience last week. My current seats that are comparable in the New Stadium are $15,000 for the PSL & the ticket pricing increased $1,700! (Per seat) Sadly, I won't be a season ticket holder in the new stadium. "

"What baffles me on this whole PSL deal ... the Bills / Pegula's get to keep none of it. It was negotiated with NYS to be sales tax exempt - as long as the entire monies collected under the PSL banner is used for future upkeep of the new stadium. The pricing of the tickets going up might cover the Pegula's investment in the stadium over 8-10 years, but they really don't get any more revenue out of this stadium [especially since it is 20% smaller]."

"I’ve told the Bills that I will not be renewing my club seats. I’m not paying $20,000 per ticket just for the privilege to buy my season tickets? They told me that every seat will have a seat license. They haven’t released what licenses for the less expensive seats will be. I’m not willing to pay any seat license. I’ll just get tickets on stub hub probably for a lot less."

"Sister in law seats in stadium now are in 213. She bought into the new stadium and her PSL was 9,000 per seat"


Greedy bastards
