1) Yes. Packers/Saints was relocated last year. Only 35k people went to the game. Bears/Vikings relocated in 2010 and 40k people showed up. Giants/Vikings also relocated in 2010 and 46k showed up.
2) Schefter said it was mainly Bills fans. Most likely because the tickets were only released to Bills season ticket members until today. Bills season ticket holders had to log/in to their portal to buy them. I guess today after Bills season ticket holders bought most of the tickets, some Lions fans could have purchased some tickets to see two teams that they don’t root for and are playing at the same time their team is playing but as Schefter said i’m thinking it’s mostly Bills fans.

For all of you wanting to know how much snow has fallen in the Buffalo area. Spoiler...
The greatest amount was 66 inches measured by a trained spotter in Orchard Park, NY as of 7pm ET today. https://t.co/BXAYMpvLkW

I mean hey there are probably a lot of people who think the Bills will go or win the Superbowl but I would be amazed if you were able to show me any national outlet or columnists or TV person or whatever who thought the Bills were going to run away with this and the Chiefs have no shot. Where are you seeing this?
Come on…..it doesn’t trigger me by any means, but early on, everyone was expecting them to cruise to a SB victory. [Reply]
