September 21, 2023, Orchard Park, NY–The Pit: Construction workers and heavy machinery continue digging a large hole for the Buffalo Bills new stadium. The new stadium site is right across from the current, will cost $1.7B to build, and, when done, will hold roughly 63,000 diehard Bills fans. NYS approved the project on April 10th, 2023. Many eat, sleep, and breathe Bills football, though, a majority were against the new stadium deal, as it would mean an uptick in taxes. Of the 1.7 billion dollar project, local taxpayers are responsible for roughly $850M. With that being said, the public should have knowledge of where their money is going and how effectively their money is being used in a project of this magnitude, and here one can see that the massive undertaking is clearly underway.
