LtJustice Team name (including city): Buffalo Bills Name of current stadium: Ralph Wilson Stadium Age of current stadium: 42 years old Current rating: 7 Current happiness level: Fair Current size: 1 STADIUM FITS BOTH CRITERIA FOR RELOCATION/REBUILD Parking level and rating: Level 1: Rating 38 Team Store level and rating: Level 1: Rating 43 Fan Zone level and rating: Level 1: Rating 33 Bathrooms level and rating: Level 1: Rating 33 Concessions level and rating: Level 1: Rating 32 Seating level and rating: Level 1: Rating 39 Current team rank - Concession: 15th Current team rank - Ticket: 7th Current team rank - Stadium: 27th (sOME NUMBERS WERE CARRIED OVER FROM INITIAL REBUILD APP, BUT REBUILD DIDN'T TAKE...) Current Team Funds: $142 Million Intended Stadium Design (choose one): Basic Sphere - $1.95M/wk Why did you choose that design? Didn't want to get too expensive of a stadium...and liked the idea of a covered stadium. What is your reason for wanting to rebuild your stadium, rather than upgrading the current stadium? The stadium is one of the oldest and underperforming in the NFL. The Bills had other cities come calling for a possible relocation including Brooklyn and Orlando . The Bills Management decided to keep the team in Buffalo (Orchard Park NY) last year BUT with the relocation not taking...and the horrendous football season- relocation time is here. The stadium is in dire straits, and the new stadium and location should help the Bills all around. Because of how old the stadium is...upgrading really wasn't an option., and it was just time for a fresh new location with an enthused fan base. RELOCATION CITY REASONING: THE BILLS PLAY IN THE AFC EAST. THOSE TEAMS AND LOCATIONS ARE: JETS/NY BILLS/NY PATRIOTS/ MASS DOLPHINS/ FL IT SEEMED TO ME FOR TRAVEL AND LEAGUE REASONS THE ONLY RELOCATION THAT WOULD MAKE SENSE, WOULD HAVE BEEN A CITY IN THE NORTH EAST, OR A CITY IN FL. BROOKLYN WAS HIGH UP ON THE LIST, BUT HAS SINCE BEEN FILLED. THIS LEFT SUNNY ORLANDO AS THE CLEAR FAVORITE. THE BILLS ARE DONE WITH DAYS OF PLAYING SOME OF THERE HOME GAMES IN TORONTO, AND SOME OF THEIR HOME GAMES IN BUFFALO. THE CITY OF ORLANDO WHICH HAS JUST BEEN AWARDED AN MLS TEAM....WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BRING A NFL TEAM TO THE CITY. IF ANYMORE INFO IS NEEDED PLEASE JUST LET ME KNOW
Michael Overman - Your application for move to Orlando is approved. We will have to coordinate together for the advances in the sim season, to ensure you are able to make all of your relocation selections. Will you be keeping the Bills name? Or re-branding your club to something more suiting of your new locale?
