The ground-breaking ceremonies for the new Buffalo Bills stadium in Orchard Park were held Monday morning.
Governor Kathy Hochul was at the ceremony where she expressed her support for the team
“[I’m the] first governor who’s really a hardcore die-hard Buffalo Bills fan. Let’s just get that out there; I think that’s pretty obvious. I literally grew up down the road in Hamburg here so how could you not love the Buffalo Bills. I could hear them cheering from my house if I wasn’t at the game myself so it’s in my blood.”
The 62,000-seat open-air stadium will cost $1.5 billion dollars and is expected to be ready for the NFL’s 2026 season.
