Buffalo Bills supporters have an opportunity to obtain a complimentary magnet this week commemorating the franchise’s new home. M&T Bank is distributing 50,000 commemorative magnets on Thursday at its Western New York locations as part of an annual tradition that highlights significant moments in team history. This year’s design celebrates the inaugural season of Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park.
The giveaway begins Thursday, August 27, during regular business hours on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies remain available. Fans are encouraged to arrive early in the day, as most branches operate from 9 a.m. until 4 or 5 p.m. Prospective collectors can locate nearby participating branches by visiting the bank’s location finder online.
The new Highmark Stadium, which cost approximately $2.2 billion, features modern amenities including enhanced seating proximity to the field and a protective canopy covering roughly two-thirds of the spectator areas. The venue seats 60,108 fans, slightly fewer than the previous facility’s capacity of 71,608, while offering expanded tailgating accommodations and improved weather protection for attendees.
The magnet distribution coincides with Thursday evening’s preseason finale between the Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers at 7 p.m., providing fans additional incentive to visit a branch and celebrate the team’s new era at their updated home venue.
