Hey Jason!!
I guess you never heard of Niagara Falls, Chipewa Ave, The Elmwood Strip etc etc etc
It always bothered me to hear that there is nothing to do in Buffalo. We can do anything a guy in Miami can do every night of the week, except for go to a beach. Can you go snow skiing? Camping in the mountains? Visit cool places in driving range like Philly, Toronto NYC, Cleveland, Boston and Atlantic City? It takes 10 hours just to drive out of Florida from Miami.
Really. What can someone in Miami do over a Buffalonian on any given day? We have night clubs, too. That's about the only thing you can do in Miami on a week night.
At least we experience all the seasons and everything that goes with it. Christmas just doesn't feel right without snow. Thanksgiving football without snow is pretty boring too. How about some outdoor ice hockey? Or if you're a kid what about all the snow ball fights and all the other fun snow stuff a kid can do?
The summer doesn't feel as good without all of those cold snowy days. When it's a sunny day in B-Lo everybody and there momma is out enjoying the weather. In Miami all they do is complain how hot it is and stay indoors with the A/C blasting.
I wouldn't trade my childhood living in Buffalo for any other place in the world.
