Some Buffalo Bills players had an unexpected delay as they headed to Arrowhead Stadium.
In most professional sports leagues there are timelines and routines that players go through on each game day. Sometimes things go wrong and adjustments have to be made. On Sunday, the Buffalo Bills had to be flexible when the early bus heading to the stadium broke down and was delayed getting to the stadium.
For those keeping score, it was the first bus of #Bills players that broke down. Another bus of more players leaves in 20 minutes.

Well, the broken down #bills bus has arrived at the stadium. They stayed on the bus, driver shifted into manual and have arrived.

Luckily, the bus driver didn’t have to push the bus through a blizzard or any inclement weather. Instead, his smart thinking go the Bills to the stadium without any major inconvenience. Bills Jerry Hughes had fun with the incident by giving a solid play-by-play of the incident.
Bus is slowly breaking down😒. And we've stopped...

Driver didn't realize his check engine light has been on for 2months😂😂😁

It’s doubtful that the engine light was on for two months, but Hughes was on his feet in the comedy category ahead of their big game against the Chiefs. The early Bills bus got to the stadium without any major hiccups and that bus driver will have a story to tell his family for years to come.
This incident isn’t more than a minor nuisance and is way better to go through than being woken up by an errant false alarm fire tone in the middle of the night.
