8 games to be played over a span of 5 years, with 5 of those games taking place during the regular season.
Great news for an NFL fan like me in Ontario, until I read this part:

Ticket packages for all eight games will be made available through a lottery. Priority will be given to season-ticket holders for the Bills, as well as the CFL’s Toronto Argonauts and Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Single-game tickets will not be sold.

So if I want to go to one of those games, hopefully a MIA/BUF game, I'm gonna have to pay through the roof.
And I floated the idea of going to one of these games in T.O. if/when this was made official to some guys I work with last week, and they almost unanimously shot down the idea, citing that it would be "lame" to attend a neutral site game like that. Would be a much better experience to just take a drive to the US.
The more I think about it, the more I think I agree with that, although it would be kinda neat to go to the first one. But if one of those games is MIA/BUF, I'd love to go. So I can wear my Dolphins jersey and not get stabbed.
How many season tixket holders are there in BUF? How many would make the trek to Toronto? And after 10-15000 packages being sold to CFL th's, how many tickets are gonna be left?
