Stole this from another group/site but had to share..... We are from Buffalo, New York. We eat chicken wings, not Buffalo wings. Jack Kemp was a quarterback, not a politician. We drink Labatt Blue, Genny Pounders, Molson & a lot of other beers. We miss Simon Pure, Kochs Black Horse Ale, Molson Brador and of course the best warm up beer - 6 pack of Old Bavarian at $1.99 Mighty Taco always has preference over Taco Bell. Pop, not soda. Rick Martin #7 , a former member of the famed French Connection from our pro hockey team, the Buffalo Sabres should be in the hockey hall of fame! You either went to school with or know/knew: Robby Takac, Ani Difranco, Tim Russert or Wolf Blitzer... You or a relative, in law worked at Bethlehem Steel, Republic Steel, Seneca Steel, Donner Hanna Coke, Shenango Steel.... You either shopped at the Seneca Mall, Thruway Mall, Como Mall and the Southgate Plaza. We also shop the Walden Galleria, Eastern Hills & Boulevard Malls. They are sneakers not tennis shoes. Its a sucker, not a lollipop. Bison chip dip, La Nova Pizzeria, Aunt Rosies Loganberry, Chiavettas Chicken, Peter Ks Potato Pancakes and Teds Hot Dogs are all too familiar...not to forget Taffys Shakes and Charlie the butcher. A fake ID is unnecessary, there is always Canada...But we have them anyway. Our bars dont close until 4 AM and we DO sell beer in a grocery store (Tops or Wegman s), which always makes for early starts and late nights. Jims steak out or Seneca Texas Hots at 4 in the morning is calling it an early night... We never cuss, but we swear entirely too much. We know that a 65 mph speed limit really means 80. We will cut you off, swear, and give you the finger if you are keeping up AND do it all in the snow, while expecting nothing less in return. Driving in the snow not only comes naturally, it is fun! We know what Artvoice and Nightlife are and we either love them or try to burn every copy we see. We start the weekends off right at Thursdays in the square while enjoying beer, free music, and an interesting crowd. We lived through Wide Right, The Forward Lateral, and No Goal. Dubbed by Dan Marino as The meanest fans because no-one actually wants to live here... We all know Dan Marino wouldnt stand one winter up here. We love the Bills (no matter what) and accept that it takes 2-4 hours to get home from a game. Nothing closes in 3 feet of snow or -20 windchills...In fact, thats how we prefer to tailgate. We can correctly pronounce, spell, and identify Chippewa, Scajaquada, Lackawanna, Cheektowaga, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Olean, Tonawanda and Gowanda without hesitation. When giving direction its not take I-90 to Route 33 east its take the 90 to the 33 east...the is not an option. We are 30 minutes from another country, one of the seven wonders of the world, and even a few beaches. Its the second largest city in New York. I AM FROM BUFFALO, a drinking town with a sports problem, and damn proud!!! Rock on...
