According to Forbes, the Buffalo Bills, the small-market team that the club is, would be among the smallest losers of stadium revenue in the NFL if fans aren’t allowed to attend games next season.
But that doesn’t mean it isn’t a lot of dough, considering the king of sports that the NFL is.
According to the research from Forbes, the Bills would lose the fourth-least amount of revenue among all NFL teams if fans aren’t allowed to attend games next season. The figures are based on the 2018 season.
Of course, in 2018, the Bills had a poor season mixed in between two playoff berths, and also to consider is the last-place team: the Raiders. In 2018, it was one of their last seasons in Oakland, and in 2020, the club became the Las Vegas Raiders. Their placement is certainly going to jump. Just above the Raiders is also the Chargers, who won’t be skipping town, but will also be moving into a new stadium.
So onto the actual figure: $104 million dollars lost for the Bills. A solid chunk of change for anyone, even if it’s the fourth-lowest total on Forbes’s list. The report is based off of the sum of tickets, concessions, sponsors, parking and team stores.
