'Like a Frontiersman': Fan Clears Snow to Watch Bills vs Steelers Game

Dedicated NFL fans worked hard to see their teams play in Orchard Park, New York, clearing their seats of snow after Highmark Stadium was buried by lake-effect snow over the weekend. https://www.nfl.com/news/steelers-bills-game-postponed-due-to-inclement-weather-in-buffalo-will-be-played-monday Postponed from Sunday, January 14, due to a snowstorm and subsequent travel ban to Buffalo, the NFL pressed ahead with the Buffalo Bills vs Pittsburgh Steelers playoff on Monday evening. Video taken by Chris Adamski shows a committed Steeler's fan working as a human snowplow to clear a row of seats "for his family, like a frontiersman". Earlier on Monday The Bills put out https://www.buffalobills.com/news/snow-shovelers-overnight-early-monday-morning-highmark-stadium-bills-steelers a call for snow shovelers to help dig out Highmark Stadium. The team offered people 20 dollars an hour and meals. Helpers were asked to dress appropriately for the weather and bring their own shovels if possible, though shovels were provided if needed.
