I've been a Bills fan my whole life despite never having never lived in Western New York. I've never been to a home game. I've been to any away game that I could attend.
This year was frustrating because the Bills actually played two games fifteen minutes from me and I couldn't go.
Bills fans who live in Buffalo haven't seen a home playoff game in 21 years. No matter what happens tonight or next Sunday, that first home playoff game will be played in The Bills Stadium.
Cuomo seems hell bent on keeping any spectators. Most governments and pro-lockdowners are going off their rockers here. We know that the virus doesn't like sunlight. We know that open air is better than circulated air.
I could get on a plane in Phoenix and spend five hours in a tube with circulated air to get to Western New York and none of you would have a problem. But, right now, letting 6,700 people into an open air stadium that seats 70,000 is insane.
-I can get on a plane to get to the game; but, I can't go to the game-
I think I could wear a mask and stay six feet apart. Fuck, there were doctors in attendence of the Packers game last night. I could go to a movie in most states but people can't go to a damn football game? Penn State wouldn't even allow parents to attend the Senior Day game. Beaver Stadium holds 106,000 people. Do social distancing and masks work or don't they? If they do, letting at least some people attend sporting events should be a no brainer.
Are you starting to realize why the government is fucked?
