Bills' new stadium costs balloon to $2.1 billion, $560 million over initial estimate, team tells AP

Bills-Stadium Football - (ASSOCIATED PRESS)

Bills president Pete Guelli said he was not surprised by the amount, given how the numbers have been tracking up since construction began 16 months ago. And he said the projected total represents the commitment the Pegulas have to the community because they are sticking to their vision for the facility without cutting corners to reduce costs.
