Thanks, it was great meeting you, I still recall you were drinking some sort of red drink. One of my favorite pictures is Pinto Ron and myself, what an incredibly approachble man. I almost never ask a celeb (yes I will call him a celeb) for a photo but had no problem asking Pinto Ron. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great memory. Yes it was red. Cranberry juice and vodka. My first experience with Kenny was at a road game in Charlotte in 2009 or 2010. Someone loaned a grill to his tailgate. Soon many realized that there was a celeb cooking the hamburgers. I'm no grilmaster but felt I could keep the hamburgers going so I took over so he could have time with the fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Story talked a lot about the Bills mafia but i was disappointed not a mention of all the charitable giving that has happened...just mostly about drinking table smashing etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's Kenny. He's a great guy. His celebrity status has never gone to his head. He wasn't out to set records by going to consecutive Bills games, he just loves the Bills. Kenny is all about having the best of times during football season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very approachable and accommodating. In that way he is a great rep for Buffalo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasnt referrring what Dell said or was quoted, i was talking about the article en toto. A lot on drinking and table smashing and vehement Bills fans but NOTHING at all about all the good Bills Mafia has done. I thought the article was slanted so as to be the most outrageous and no put give the Mafia a fair shake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's come to the bar in Baltimore with us at the R Rich pregame tailgate & I've been to his tailgate party in NE, although I stopped going to NE games about 10 years ago. I had to decline the bowling ball shots in NE because I never drink at games (or anywhere else) that I drive to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anytime I have something cherry flavored I have flashbacks to the bowling ball. I opened a bottle of cherry flavored rum and I cannot finish it.

machine gun kelly Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Thanks for the updates. I’m very happy to hear Ken made it home.

CowgirlsFan Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) #PintoRon Update. Talked with Kenny Saturday. All is good. He sounded like Kenny of old. He is bunkered down at his homestead. Obviously he has to take it easy & slowly build up his strength.Turns out a lot of his medical team has been to his tailgate! @pintotailgate 👍❤️🍔🌭🛥 This is a tweet from Hammer's Lot Edited February 28, 2021 by CowgirlsFan 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Bills were Super Bowl contenders I used to tell my father that he better not die on a week I have Super Bowl tickets or I won't go to his funeral. He lived over a decade past the Bills glory years and died on a January Sunday in 2008 at age 87 during the Bills playoff drought and I was able to attend his funeral.

I've done a lot of interviews. You get asked many questions. While some interviewers will tell what angle/topic they are looking for most don't. You never know what the final story will look like. Obviously the interviewer was not interested in the recent charity donations craz which is nothing new. WNYers have a long history of being one of the most generous communtues in the nation. Hopefully Hallie Grossmans ESPN article was more to your liking. Go Bills 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I posted to begin with. If was, if anything, disappointed in the, to me obvious agenda the author took. Your quotes were very, I hate to say it, politically correct, well measured, thoughtful with a tinge of humor. I actually thought well done. Another lesson to me is you can not trust the "press" any more, they have an agenda they will run with it. Did you read it? What were your thoughts? When i used to be quoted by the media it was a different era, it wasnt all agenda or computer click driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
