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.

September 22, 2023, Orchard Park, NY--Friday Night Lights: Orchard Park Students at the Quakers vs Legends football game at Lancaster High School. Students from Orchard Park dressed in the game day theme, “groutfits,” cheering on the Orchard Park Quakers. As the sun is setting and the temperature is dropping, the students' spirits stay high while they cheer on their team right after a Quaker touchdown. Even though their team was losing, hopes were high, and clapping and motivation from the OP fans continued. Here the dedication of the students to their team, their friends, and their school are evident. It's not always about winning, but the fun that comes from supporting those around you as a community. It would be a loss for the Quakers, but the fans had a great time chanting and cheering for their team on the road.
