Sabres-Penguins January 1, 2008 at Ralph Wilson Stadium


ESPN and WGR550 are reporting that the Sabres and Pittsburgh Penguins will play an outdoor game in Ralph Wilson Stadium, home of the NFL Buffalo Bills. There has been no official announcement yet from the league but the teams are scheduled for a 1:00 P.M. game on that day. It is being reported that the league has held off the announcement pending the working out of details between the league, Sabres and Bills. According to the Bill's current lease, they are entitled to all revenues generated by the stadium. It is believed negotiations are underway and close to being completed to allow the Sabres and Bills to split revenues on the venture.
I will report any more information on this event as they become available. It sounds like a fine time for the first ever Bleu, Blanc et Rouge blogger convention though!

Awesome!

The previous two games that were played outdoors were a smashing success (at least in my mind) and I would surely love to see another!
