Buffalo - Pittsburgh Ice Bowl Sells Out

A day after the announcement of an outdoor game between Buffalo and Pittsburgh, it has been sold out.

Buffalo is a decent city to host an outdoor game as the weather, while below freezing, is still fairly mild. That didn't stop Eklund from praising the fans as they bought tickets to an outdoor game "in one of the coldest cities in North America".

With an average temperature in early January of about -3 degrees Celsius and with the thermometer not having dipped below -17 degrees Celsius in a couple decades, it's a pretty ideal venue for an outdoor game. I'd actually hope for it to be a little colder than -3 but maybe that's just the Saskatchewan in me coming out.
