More than 100 people with tickets to Saturday's Buffalo Bills playoff game tested positive for COVID-19 over the last two days, forcing them to give up their right to attend the event.

Under state mandate, each of the nearly 7,000 fans, media members and guests allowed to attend the upcoming game had to submit to a COVID-19 test between 72 and 48 hours before the event.

Of those, about 1.9% — roughly 130 people — tested positive and will not be allowed to attend the game, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Friday at a briefing at the state Capitol.

What about the people in the car that tested negative next to the person that tested positive? Will they be able to attend?

It says those fans are eligible for refund on ticket but not the $63 they paid for the test. Id hope the Bills will reconsider and shell out the $7k to those fans who went through this ridiculous process and now still can't attend the game.

Wonder if people will sue somebody if they can prove it was a false positive.

Maybe put them first in line for the possible next playoff home game?
