A security staffer for the Buffalo Bills has come under fire after being seen telling a fan he couldn’t wear his Donald Trump T-shirt during Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins.
The Bills enjoyed another win on the season, beating the Dolphins 30-27 at their Highmark Stadium, where political signage may or may not be prohibited.
The Erie County GOP account on X posted a video of the security personnel telling the fan the NFL doesn’t allow anything political at games.
“WIDE LEFT!” they posted as the caption to the video shown right below:
“Buffalo Bills security telling a fan he can’t wear a Trump T-shirt at the game? What a joke! If anyone knows this proud Trump supporter, send us a message – we’d love to hook him up with some Trump gear!”

“Definitely wearing a maga hat to the chiefs game tomorrow night now!!!” a user wrote in the comments.
“@BuffaloBills and the @NFL can kindly go f**k themselves while burning to the f**king ground,”
“It is technically the right of the organization to make those demands. However, I say we boycot the NFL and start football over. The salaries are getting out of hand anyway,” another suggested.
The Buffalo Bills Join Teams Which Have Come Under Scrutiny For Challenging Fans On Their Political Wear
This is hardly the first such incident involving security and fans at NFL games this season.
The Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers have made the news in such regard, with the latter fielding extra criticism as one of their own players, Nick Bosa, crashed a postgame interview to display a MAGA hat after a recent win.
There seems to be some confusion over what is allowed and what isn’t ahead of the presidential election. Fortunately, the campaigning will be over soon.
