Having the Buffalo Bills end their series of games is Toronto comes as good news for many Bills fans in western New York.

That includes the president of the Buffalo Bills Backers of Rochester, Susan Gemmett.

She says she's happy the Bills experiment in Toronto is over, because the Bills will get a home game back, and they won't have to play a game at what appeared to be a neutral site.

Gemmett says the Bills got better support when they had to play in Detroit last month when their game was snowed out in Buffalo.

The decision wasn't a great surprise, as the Bills were only managed to win 1 of 6 regular season games played there.

The Bills did receive 78-million dollars from Rogers Communications for what was essentially a an eight game lease.

Gemmett says the current owners, Terry and Kim Pegula will find a way to make up for any revenue lost from the cancelled series.
