If you live in Buffalo and can shovel snow, the Buffalo Bills need your help.
The blizzard that forced the NFL to postpone the playoff game between the Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers is over, but the snow it dumped on the area is still blanketing Highmark Stadium. The Bills, who had already been paying locals to shovel snow overnight, put out another call for shovelers Monday morning.
The pay is $20 an hour, and a shovel will be provided if you don’t have one. The Bills will also provide complimentary breakfast. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Bills fans, whether they’re shoveling or looking like doofuses while slipping down a snow slide.
The game had originally been scheduled for Sunday at 1 p.m. ET, but the NFL postponed the game until 4:30 p.m. ET Monday because of the massive snowstorm that hit Buffalo over the weekend. The conditions before and around game time demonstrated why a delay was necessary. The weather was life threatening, and there was no reason for anyone to play a game in those conditions.
The weather forecast for the rescheduled game on Monday is cloudy and 18 degrees, which will feel like five degrees with the wind factored in. The only thing that will make it any better than 27 hours earlier is that it won’t be whiteout conditions. It’ll still be cold and miserable, but if any two teams are prepared to deal with that, it’s the Bills and Steelers.
