HISTORY:

Renowned as the site of "The Comeback" – a Jan. 3, 1993, wild-card playoff game during which the Bills overcome a 32-point deficit (the greatest in NFL history) to beat the Oilers 41-38 in overtime – Ralph Wilson Stadium opened for business in August 1973, when it was then known as Rich Stadium. To form the lower level of the stadium, more than 370,000 feet of shale were removed, putting the field 50 feet below ground level.
