An approval by Erie County lawmakers will provide greater security at Ralph Wilson Stadium during Bills' games. The plan will bring approximately 146 additional Sheriff's deputies to the grounds, increasing the patrols inside the stadium ten-fold. The cost for the added safety presence is expected to cost nearly $500,000, an amount that the Bills have agreed to cover.

County Executive Mark Poloncarz worked with the team in outlining the agreement.

Saturday & Sunday 6 a.m. to 12 p.m.
