The
fan who slid down a handrail and fell into the crowd at Ralph Wilson
Stadium on Sunday has been banned from attending future Buffalo Bills
games."The irresponsible behavior that occurred at yesterday's game by
the fan who fell from the upper deck is a violation of our Fan Code of
Conduct and cannot, and will not, be tolerated," Bills' President and
CEO Russ Brandon said in a statement issued on Monday afternoon."This
individual will not be permitted back into Ralph Wilson Stadium. The
vast majority of our fans who attend Bills home games at Ralph Wilson
Stadium do so in a responsible manner and we continue to work diligently
to eliminate those individuals who violate our Fan Code of Conduct from
game days at our stadium. We are cooperating with the Erie County
Sheriff's Office during their investigation of this incident and we want
to extend our best wishes for a speedy recovery to the fan who was
injured in the 200 level."Jeff Savidge, a season ticket holder,Our store
