No fans allowed in Buffalo home games

[Jeremy Igo]

NY State says no fans allowed to attend Bills home games. Not so much for the stadium, but worries of the tailgating outside.

 

So the question is will the rest of the NFL follow suit.

Wonder why they did not include the Giants and the Jets in that order?

They play in New Jersey.

I don't think fans will be able to attend any games this year unless something drastic happens

NY and NJ have a 14 day quarantine for people entering their state. Are they making an exception for teams?

Interesting point.

My work is sending me to NY sunday and the quarantine is definitely an issue. Not sure how that would work for NFL teams coming from states on the quarantine list like NC.

Yeah I'm with you. I just don't see any realistic way that happens.

The first domino has fallen, it won't be long before others follow.   They almost have to for a level playing field.  I can't see the NFL allowing some teams with fans while other teams go without fans at home.

Why? Is there no one there that can do what you do?

There are 4 people in my company who do what I do. One is in his 70's in Florida and doesn't travel owing to health issues, one is in the process of switching roles within the company and is basically only still doing the role I do while a new guy is being trained to take his place, and the fourth is based out of St Louis and covers things west of there. Also the four of us have defined geographic regions and it's my region anyway.

lol...had not finished my 1st cup of coffee yet.  Those states have been coordinating through this.  Bet NJ announces the same.

Agree.

Haha remember how we thought this would fall off in the summer and we'd worry about a second wave in the fall.

At this rate I'd be surprised if we have a season come September. poo might look really bleak by then.
