New York Governor Kathy Hochul did not receive the welcome she expected at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the New Buffalo Bills stadium.
The new $2.1 Billion Highmark Stadium officially opened on Wednesday with a humiliating flop from the Governor.
Immediately after being welcomed to the stage in her team-colored blue suit and a Bills cap, Hochul unsuccessfully tried to rile up the crowd.
“All right, let’s get this party started,” she said, pointing to the crowd and shouting, “Let’s go.” But nobody responded with the “Buffalo” chant she was hoping for.
She then tried again, shouting, “Let’s go,” throwing her left hand out, and “Buffalo,” throwing her right. But nobody joined.
“All right, seriously? You’re going to win a championship season with that kind of energy,” she said before trying again!
Men and women of labor, you know what I’m talking about. Let’s go! Buffalo!” she said, falling flat.
“All right, we gotta give this place some good karma, right? We gotta send our boys off to a great, great sense of accomplishment and victory in the wings,” she continued awkwardly.
WATCH:
Others in attendance at the event were Bills Owner and CEO Terry Pegula, Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz, and Mary Wilson, the widow of Bills founder Ralph Wilson Jr.
Per Fox:
The Bills will open the 60,000-seat facility with a “Return of the Blue & Red” training camp practice on Aug. 8. The stadium is 99.75% complete, according to Bills Senior Vice President of Design and Stadium Operations Frank Cravotta.
Stadium architects Populous designed the building with underground heating coils to allow the natural grass to avoid freezing, along with lights specifically designed for growing grass. There’s also a snow-melt system, and a canopy that blocks wind to keep fans more comfortable during the brutal Buffalo winters.
