$150,000 Worth of "Pornographic Graffiti" Brought Construction of Buffalo Bills Highmark Stadium To A Screeching Halt
Audacy – The Erie County Sheriff's Office's Investigative Services Division is leading a probe into the latest reports of graffiti and vandalism reported at the new Highmark Stadium construction site.
The investigation, which began Monday at the behest of the Gilbane | Turner construction team, is focusing on a series of what officials are calling "pornographic" graffiti and vandalism reported in various interior portions of the $2.1 billion stadium that is under construction.
It was dicks wasn't it? Unless we have a woke vandal who drew a bunch of vaginas on the wall. But this is the Buffalo Bills we're talking about. Outside of that one short stretch of WNBA games, the Buffalo Bills are the #1 dick franchise in sports.
It's gotta be dicks, right? If for no other reason than dicks are fun to draw. Anybody can do it. Drawing dicks can be addicting. Once you start, it can be hard to stop.
Sounds to me like Buffalo has a regular ol' Jimmy Tatro American Vandal situation on their hands.
There are no pictures of the "pornographic graffiti" (which I am only assuming are dicks). But we do have a statement from Erie County Executive, Mark Poloncarz. A statement that adds another less fun layer to Buffalo Bills New Stadium Dickgate.
WKBW – On Tuesday, Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz was asked about the incident after speaking at an unrelated press conference and said in part, "Some idiot decided to put up pornographic and what we believe is anti-LGBTQ kind of sentiment at the stadium."
So it was a decidedly not-woke vandal. God damn it. They couldn't just be fun whimsical Superbad dicks, could they? They had to be hate dicks.
The investigation is ongoing. Who drew the hate dicks that brought the construction of Buffalo Bills brand new Highmark Stadium to a screeching halt? Whoever did so managed to shut down construction for days. They did $150,000 worth of porn graffiti damage.

According to Geary, everyone is swiped and badged into the system, so they were able to narrow it down to around 300 employees who were working throughout the weekend and they are all being interviewed.
Geary said there was about $150,000 in damages to four separate suites on the west side of the building and they were near 100 percent complete.
He said the person(s) responsible used an oil-based spray paint that got into granite surfaces, some of the marble finishes, some of the tiles and wood surfaces and even some of the flooring.
There's now a $100,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the vandal.
Gilbane-Turner, which is working jointly as construction managers on the more than $2 billion project, announced that a $100,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of those responsible.
I'm not sure what the chances of that actually getting paid out are, but that's a pretty hefty reward for vandalism. We're about to have 300 construction employees interrogated one-by-one under a heat lamp being presented pictures of dick graffiti. For that type of money, if anybody saw anything, somebody is bound to speak up. That's one hell of a #Dickgate investigation they've got on their hands.
