FORMER Buffalo Bills legend Takeo Spikes criticizes the franchise for the “seating arrangements” he was given for their Week 2 game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
The 46-year-old former All-pro was invited to the game and was honored as a team legend before the start but ripped the Bills on social media after being displeased with the view from his seat.

Spikes played with the Bills for three seasons from 2003-06 and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to voice his complaints.
The ex-pro-bowl linebacker expressed dissatisfaction with his seating arrangements during the team’s Week 2 victory over the Raiders and left the game early.
Spike shared a photo of his box seat view being obstructed by the stands above with this message online, displaying his frustration:
“Congrats to the Buffalo Bills for getting a dominant win in the home opener.
“I wish I could’ve stayed for the entire game, but seating accommodations were NOT the standard.
“How you gonna have the @NFLLegends supporting with this obstructed sample size of a view!? Felt like I was in timeout,” Spike wrote onX.
Many NFL fans agreed with the former star and shared their reactions online.
One stated: “They did you dirty with that view.”
Another: “Now, who in their right mind at Bills Org thought this would be appropriate seating for anyone, let alone Spikes. Yall drop the ball on this one.”
And a third expressed: “Unacceptable. You should be in the owner’s suite.”
Spikes played 15 seasons in the NFL, and his time was most notable with the Bills, where he was a two-time Pro Bowl selection and made first-team All-pro.
He retired from the NFL in 2012 after playing for five franchises.
