The Buffalo area experienced a significant amount of snowfall last week, which caused chaos surrounding the Bills-Steelers AFC Wild Card Round match. And it appears like the weather is a problem once more because snow is once again falling on Orchard Park, the home field of the Bills.
Fortunately, the snowfall that began on Friday and continued into early Saturday should allow the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs to play their important AFC Divisional Round playoff game on Sunday at its scheduled time.
Since it was impossible to clear all roads in time for the game and it would have been extremely dangerous to deploy resources on people driving to Highmark Stadium, last week’s game had to be rescheduled from Sunday to Monday.
In addition, there were two or three feet of snow covering the stadium. They were forced to make an appeal to the locals for help shovelling snow for $20 per hour if they could make it to Highmark Stadium safely.
This week, they are requesting that fans do the same thing.
The Buffalo Bills’ refusal to even supply shovels annoys me the most about this. Even with their billion-dollar franchise, they are unable to supply enough high-quality shovels to clear the stadium. That looks absurd.
Orchard Park is expected to have temperatures in the mid-20s on Sunday, along with light winds.
