First off, LOVE me some TKO! He's on my Bills all-timers list for sure...
I met Takeo quickly in 2014 - I him, told him I was a Bills fan (ok, and a TKO fan) and recounted the story of Bills fans chanting for him in that Cinci game. He was like "That was AMAZING, I knew I had to go to Buffalo after that!"
So yeah, your efforts were not wasted! 🙌
