The Buffalo Bills host a football game Sunday. To play it, they need to remove six feet of snow from in and around Ralph Wilson Stadium, which adds up to an estimated 220,000 tons. They would like you, Bills fan, to come help them.
Bills VP Andy Major says team is looking for snow shovelers. $10/hour and game tickets. 716-636-4840.

We’d suggest $10 an hour is a bit scant, considering the hurdles fans must surmount just to reach the stadium. Offering the free opportunity to sit out for longer in the snowpocalypse during commercial breaks hardly adds to the appeal. But, really, people investing a significant income and time commitment to an NFL franchise are already high on the masochism scale. The Bills probably could have got fans out there with some hot chocolate in souvenir cups.
This may be a job for Mike Francesa…
