Governor Andrew Cuomo hinted Friday he d support the possibility of allowing some fans into Bills Stadium for National Football League playoff home games, if the COVID-related statistics were favorable and if a proper plan was ready.
During his Friday COVID update in Albany, Cuomo stated that Western New York s infection and hospitalization rates were decreasing. He then added that he d make two bets. One was that New York State would not need another shutdown like the one ordered this spring.

His other bet? That the Buffalo Bills will make the NFL playoffs. That led to the question whethe the state would consider allowing fans to attend, though in limited capacity, at One Bills Drive. The governor was reminded he had suggested back in September that he d evaluate and decide whether that would be allowed. To date, Bills home games have been played with no fans in attendance.
