    Stankey's?🙂

    I grew up off Abbott and went to St Tommys. Hung around the Y yard as a kid and Tosh Collins/Caz Park as a teenager. South Buffalo was a wild place in the 70s, so many kids roaming the streets and partying in the park. My friends and I dug an underground fort along the creek before that winter, big enough for 2 couches and an easy chair. We hung out in there all winter.  It caved in that next spring when all the snow melted.

    According to AccuWeather as of now they are calling for 55 mph winds and snow possibly measured in feet for the game. That's not just bad weather....that is extremely dangerous deadly weather. Heavy snow and 50+ mph wind =complete whiteout, can't see your hands in front of your face. If that forecast is accurate I don't see how they can even play the game in those conditions. 

      80,000 people on the roads to and from the game...some people are likely to die .

      Before you say I don't know about snow....

      I grew up in S Buffalo and was 15  during the Blizzard 77. We went out in the whiteout and you literally could not see a thing. You would walk right into a tree or parked car before ever seeing it. When it finally cleared I went out the 2nd floor window with a shovel to dig out the front door. I also lived in a cave at 8000' ft in Park City for 2 ski seasons in the late 80s. The cave was just above town near the ski run, I'd wake up and ski down to the town lift on Main St. The rent was $0😉

    I've been in many whiteout conditions...you cant even see  where you are going and you  definitely can't drive.

    This sucks....I hope they are wrong

    There is a chance that the heaviest bands miss Orchard Park but currently not looking that way

     

    I almost died in that storm - simply trying to walk home from a bar to my parent's house off of Abbott rd in South Buffalo, a mere mile or so.

    With all due respect and I hope you're correct and not questioning your integrity but how do you know this?
