Gov. Kathy Hochul's Lackluster Reception at Buffalo Bills Stadium Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony

Gov. Kathy Hochul received a lukewarm reception at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Buffalo Bills stadium. Despite her enthusiastic entrance in Bills attire, the crowd responded with only a smattering of applause. Hochul attempted to start a chant in support of the team, but the audience remained unresponsive. She called out the lack of enthusiasm and made another unsuccessful attempt to rally the crowd before acknowledging the subdued atmosphere. The $2.1 billion, 60,000-seat stadium will serve as the Bills' home for the next three decades, with construction starting in June 2023.
