Forget the Jets – the Buffalo Bills’ biggest opponent right now is 220,000 tonnes of snow.

Though their 1 p.m. Sunday game against the New York Jets is still scheduled to go ahead, about six feet of snow is going to have to be removed if any football is going to be played at Ralph Wilson Stadium this week.

The NFL franchise is calling on its fans to help, in an around-the clock effort to clear the four feet of snow that already blankets the field, plus the up to two feet that could still fall before the game.

“We have not had this much snow as far as we know in the history of our team,” said Bills VP of Operations Andy Major on their website.

The team announced on Twitter that anyone willing to help hack away at the icescape would be rewarded with $10 an hour plus tickets to the game. Major is hoping for about 500 people to show up to the stadium over the next three days.

“We’re just going to have to go 24/7, triple shifts, to push forward and make sure we have this place ready for Sunday,” Major said. “We can’t have too many people helping, so there’s no cut-off. We will definitely not be turning anybody away who wants to help shovel snow.”

If the mountainous task can’t be completed before kickoff, the Bills say the fate of Sunday’s game is in the NFL’s hands.
