all off season gossip here 🙂

[http://wgr550.com/bills/fullstory.php?id=3020](http://wgr550.com/bills/fullstory.php?id=3020)

> WGR 550 - Sources have told WGR 550 that the Bills have worked out a deal to play one regular season game in Toronto a year for the next 5 years. In addition, the Bills will play 3 preseason games in Toronto over the next 5 years. The games will be played in the Rogers Centre.

> The official announcement has not yet come from One Bills Drive. That is expected to come next Wednesday.

> The Fan 590 in Toronto is reporting that single game tickets will not be available for sale at first. CFL season ticket holders in Hamilton and Toronto will have first shot at buying the 8-game package priced at an average of $250 per ticket. Then, Bills season ticket holders will have a shot through a lottery to purchase the remaining seats.

Canadians in general, or at least those in Toronto, don’t know how to tailgate as it is.

Went to a few concerts up there and the only ones tailgating were Buffalonians

Yes the price for the two games being played in Canada will be deducted off of the season ticket price.

It expands the fan base for the league. More fans = more merchandise sold = more $$

Tailgating may not be huge in Toronto due to the lack of open spaces and field parking, but they know how to party.

I’d get there a day and half early, and just hit bars. That’s where the “tailgating” will happen.
