Bills memorabilia collectors may have met their match, as uncleaned Highmark Stadium bathroom troughs are up for sale.
Buffalo Bills fans have seen just about everything when it comes to sports memorabilia — Josh Allen jerseys, cards, signed helmets, you name it. But the Buffalo Bills collector world just hit a new level. With the old Highmark Stadium being torn down ahead of the team’s new home opening later this year, uncleaned urinals (or bathroom troughs) from the men’s restrooms are now up for grabs for a cool $5,000. Demand is sky-high, with fans going wild over the listing.
Buffalo Bills Highmark Stadium Memorabilia: Bathroom Troughs
For your $5,000, you’re getting an eight-foot-long, 16-inch-wide, 16-inch-deep slab of Bills Mafia lore. The listing makes one thing very clear — this thing has not been cleaned, restored, or modified in any way.
Per the product description, the trough shows “visible wear, staining, discoloration, and signs of heavy use consistent with its time in a high-traffic public stadium,” and it’s being sold in that raw, original condition to preserve authenticity.
Yes, there’s official documentation involved — every trough includes verification paperwork to prove its Orchard Park origin. The catch? It’s pickup only in Orchard Park — so you’re driving to the stadium to haul this thing home yourself. All sales are final, no returns, no refunds. You get what you get.
The sales page describes it as capturing the spirit of decades of game days, which, given the condition, is doing some heavy lifting as a euphemism.
High Demand for Buffalo Bills Stadium Memorabilia
This isn’t some joke listing collecting dust. The demolition operation is a joint venture between CollectionsXChange and Erie County. According to the company’s project manager, Baye Keita, nothing on the entire inventory page draws more eyeballs than the troughs
Keita told Audacy they’re “probably the one thing we get asked about the most.” There are 40 troughs total in the old stadium, and 14 have already been removed, per Ryan Talbot of Syracuse.com, who first reported the listing going live.
CollectibleXchange CEO Brandon Steiner backed that up, telling WKBW the demand has created what he called a “very long list,” and the company is still trying to figure out a fair system for who actually gets one.
The bathroom collectibles are just one thread in what’s shaping up as a transformative year for the organization. Crews are tearing down the building that hosted over five decades of football. The replacement venue across the street sits near completion, per WKBW. Bills COO Pete Guelli told WKBW the team expects to get the keys in June and be “ready to start hosting football games in August.”
Buffalo Bills Offseason News
It’s been a massive offseason for the Bills beyond just stadium news. Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld welcomed a baby girl on April 2. The franchise wasted no time sending a strong message to their quarterback after the announcement.
On the roster side, the Bills traded for DJ Moore this offseason. Head coach Joe Brady has already made his feelings clear on what the receiver brings to Buffalo’s offense.
A franchise quarterback who just became a father, a blockbuster receiver acquisition, and a gleaming new venue close to completion. The reset in Orchard Park touches every corner of the operation.
