Five members of the Buffalo Jills are suing the people who manage cheerleaders for the Bills for a whole variety of workplace violations.
Among the craziest allegations
Granted, this isn't the Bills themselves, but damn it's another example of why I hate NFL ownership. They really are the greediest bastards I can think of. They have a complete and total monopoly and they nickle and dime everyone.
Among the craziest allegations
According to the lawsuit, the Buffalo Jills were given a list of 17 rules governing “general hygiene and body maintenance.” They included “how to properly wash ’intimate areas’ and how often to change tampons.”
The Buffalo Jills allege that Stejon and Citadel essentially ran a racket, forcing the women to buy calendars and other Bills-related items out of pocket and then sell them on their own time. They even imposed damages if they failed to sell their quotas, according to the suit. Each woman was required to buy 50 to 75 Buffalo Jills swimsuit calendars at $10 each and sell them. If she did not sell them, she was left in the red and “subject to further penalties at the discretion of defendants.” The same went for Jills golf tournament tickets and gift baskets, which could cost each woman $590. Other out-of-pocket expenses included travel and hotel accommodations for the events they had to attend and $650 in uniform costs, the suit says.
