Outkast Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 You gotta see this commercial. I caught it today on ESPN while watching Sportscenter. It's a cartoon. It starts off showing Buffalo cold and miserable looking and then it goes to a family watching another Bills loss. The announcer says the QB is about to take a knee but the QB botched the kneel down and Buffalo recovers for what appears to be a miraculous TD return. Then clouds go away, the sun comes out and people are celebrating in the streets and then the announcer shouts "on no!! the bills player stepped out of bounds!! No touchdown!!!" The sun immediately goes away and the clouds come back out and Buffalo looks miserable again. I found it both sad and funny. A Bills fan had to make that commercial. No one else could possibly know the pain that comes with Bills defeats and the heartbreaking fashion Buffalo ends up losing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only hear the announcer giving the play by play and you can see the reaction from the bills' fans while watching it on their TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLS4LIFE Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 I saw it and its pretty sad that that is the way we make national news,but I guess we should be used to it by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Whoever wrote that script nailed it. Sad, but it really tells the story of how much the Bills mean to their fans, and how they keep the faith. It also nails how the Bills franchise is snakebut. People talk about Red Sox fans waiting 86 years, but the Sox could always be counted on to be competative. Being a Bills fan means watching and caring even when they are 2-14.
