After nearly six decades without nabbing as much as an AFL Championship, fans of the Buffalo Bills have allegedly taken extreme measures in the hopes of landing their first Super Bowl win  — sacrificing themselves to a giant pit.


As construction crews toil away at the NFL team’s new stadium in Orchard Park, New York, several sneaky fans have purportedly come to a strange — and likely causation-free — correlation: The Bills seem to play better if they “feed the pit,” or yeet themselves into a hole on the construction site.



“I have a source (Dr. Jerome Silberman) inside the ECMC Emergency Room that has informed me that, despite no reports shared by local media, they have seen a patient that has fallen into the pit on EVERY SINGLE GAMEDAY since the start of the Bills 5 game win streak,” Buffalo-themed clothing retailer, BuffaClothes, captioned a snap of the construction site on Friday.



Though upon further research, it appears this may have started out as a big ‘ol ad for BufffaClothes — as any Jeremy Allen White girlie can attest, “Jerome Silberman” was actor Gene Wilder’s name — several fans and internet laypeople alike took this post and ran, launching it into a full-fledged meme highlighting the infamous dedication of Bills Mafia.



“Salute to those who sacrificed themselves to the pit for the sake of a Super Bowl,” wrote one fan.


“If you have not fallen into the pit yet STAY IN LINE! we need to keep winning football games,” added another while several other Bills backers likened the situation to a Parks and Recreation plot line



Yet it appears the whole thing wasn’t simply pulled from BuffaClothes’ admin’s a—. Back in September, a nude Bills fan supposedly high on cocaine, LSD and weed was apprehended by police … after he himself fell into the pit, per The Buffalo News.



But regardless of whether or not fans have been — or now are — hurling themselves into a construction site pit as an offering to the gods of football, we can only hope they nab a W come Super Bowl Sunday … because we’re afraid of what will happen if they don’t.
