Can also be good fun time to do something different and help out your team. Many would have tried to get people to do this for free.
Let them stay to watch the game and they would promise to do it every time this happens. Even if there's a half-inch of snow.
the tickets are already sold out for months in advance, there's no room for extra spectators in those numbers I wouldnt think
IIRC, Ralph Wilson (it's correct name and I will not accept any others) has a huge screen that can be used for parking lot viewing in warmer months.
Probably not worth the liability for blizzard conditions though.
i mean yeah- shovel the snow from the stadium then stand outside, ticketholders comin through, make way make way
ain't no warmer "inside"
ok but the game is inside. you can watch on a screen at home
Pegula (the owner) doesn't do things to benefit the fans, just his wallet.
Probably. I'm guessing, in general, the tickets are worth more to the stadium than the free snow removal as well. It was just a fun thought.
yeah yeah fair enough. i know you understand how ticketed events work, i wasnt trying to be a dick. it would be a great idea if they could carve out an area for shovellers though, onna them feel good stories (which are normally how communities came together to save someone's life from the predatory healthcare industry in the states)
The 1.5 billi9n we gave them was all the free help they should get, if even.
What was it given for?
For a brand new, open air stadium, smaller than the current one.
