Snorom Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 As soon as I read "there is nothing else to do in Buffalo", I knew that the "over-sensitive" folks would post about it. plenty to do in Buffalo It was a backhanded thing to say regarding the city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 The first time I heard of "Buffalo Wings" is when I went away to college. My college friends were giving me crap about Buffalo, saying the city had nothing to offer. Then one kid said there was ONE thing good from Buffalo: Buffalo Wings. At that time (1977), no one knew what he was talking about - including me. You ever been asked how you wanted them, and you say hot/medium/mild. Then they ask if i wanted them traditional and naked? I had know idea what the hell was going on. Apparently, they bread wings outside of Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beautiful East Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Gee so you don't like Fox News? I won't debate you on the merits of various news outlets because this is a Buffalo Bills forum, but your response made me laugh. It sounds like a talking point from the Democratic party. And like I said, I knew that there would be at least one person that had to disparage Fox News instead of enjoying the #2 ranking. And there should be more.

Passepartout Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Would love to go to all the NFL cities to learn to tailgate to be honest with you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Would love to go to all the NFL cities to learn to tailgate to be honest with you all. The other NFL cities need to come to Orchard Park to learn from us how to tailgate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) plenty to do in Buffalo I read that a certain RB with the initials Willis McGahee disagrees. Buffalo is not South Beach, and Willis is not a genius. (But at least he didn't use Canadiens as speed bumps.)

Augie Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 And there's a lot I miss about Buffalo! (More than Willis I'm sure.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Anchorage Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I have a serious question. What exactly do you "do" in cities that have a lot to "do" in? Go to night clubs? Attend a Broadway show? play volleyball on the beach? When I was in WNY I had no problem entertaining myself with the great hunting and fishing there, but maybe that's just me.

BuffaninATL Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I can't read the article. My religion (and every bit of common sense) forbids me to read, watch or listen to publications of Fox News. I was always that in mixed company (outside of family) to never discuss politics or religion (....or football, for that matter) I almost hate to ask what religion would compel you to offer such a corrosive opinion of a particular news outlet - I thought (most) religions were supposed be tolerant of differing trains of thought/opinion? Or maybe I shouldn't ask the question??? I would rather keep the conversation to the Bills, as this is a Bills message board, but you dangled some pretty low-hanging fruit - I was always taught that in mixed company (outside of family) to never discuss politics or religion (....or football, for that matter) I almost hate to ask what religion would compel you to offer such a corrosive opinion of a particular news outlet - I thought (most) religions were supposed be tolerant of differing trains of thought/opinion?

Buffalo actually has everything else one could want. Summer- beaches, lakes, fishing, baseball, waterfront, concerts, parks, hiking, bike paths Fall- football, hockey, hiking, hunting Winter- skiing, football, hockey, hunting, snowmobiling, ice skating Spring- hiking, baseball, waterfront In top of all that, which may be duplicated a few times is restraints galore. They don't call people from Buffalo more obese for nothing. Bars all over the place. NT is in the Guinness book of records for christs sake for bars on a single street. Wing joints. Pizza. Beef on Weck. You name it for food. There's the theatre district. There's parties almost every night of the week in some part of the city. Thursday night is a hot at the waterfront. Pegulaville will be huge once it's complete. Some huge malls. Niagara Falls. Canada working rock throwing distance. Toronto nearby. Honestly, those people that say there's nothing to do here just got bored of those things and thought a pool party in Las Vegas would be more fun. I know becaise I was one of them. I'm back after spending a few years away from home. I spent 2 years in Vegas and got sick of that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
