thebug Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Born and raised in Canada. Never lived in the Buffalo area. When I was a young kid (mid 80's), the only team they showed on TV was the Bills, so I became a fan. My father was a big CFL fan, but I showed him the way to real football (well at least for the 90's). Buffalo is now one of my favorite places to visit, just because of the Bills. I think this is my 8th year as a season ticket holder. GO BILLS! In Canada we have social insurance numbers. Mine is 492 645 991.

Dr. Fong Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 born 59 grew up in Bflo moved NYC in 94 lived there til 2006 went to Seoul for a year and a half. moved to Bangkok 3 years ago, watching the Bills is a B word these days but hasn't been much to watch last few years anyway. Hoping that changes, don't mind working w/o sleep if they win. Cool. I lived in Bangkok from 1999-2004. You're right about it being a B word to catch a Bills game. Whoever picked which games to show on UBC back in those days definitely must have been a 49ers fan. Stayed up until 4 am to watch the Home Run Throwback in my living room. Man was I pissed. PM me if you get a chance I'd like to swap Thailand stories. Born Buffalo 72 Lived in Springville until 80 Moved to Virginia Beach Bangkok 99-04 Back to Virginia Beach Now Chesapeake

BillsFanInLV Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 The world was blessed in Aug of 1972, when I reared my head from my mothers loins. The place, Kenmore Mercy Hospital. Raised in Riverside my entire life and attended McKinley High School for four years. Graduated class of 1990. Joined the Military in 1992 and left Buffalo. I have lived in Las Vegas for 12 of the last 18 years. Six years were spent living abroad (Turkey, Germany, Guam) I return to Buffalo twice a year with my wife and son so that my parents can see their grandchild. I still love and cherish my roots to the city of Buffalo, the food and the sport teams. I have been traversing the country and attending at least one Bills game every year for the past 12 years. Last fall, in Buffalo, the Bills Beat up on Miami........this was the first time in 12 years that I attended a game and the Bills won. Go Bills and Go Buffalo!

Wooderson Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Howdy, neighbor! Northern VA (where my wife and I live) is sports-minded. Being so close to DC, the Caps, 'Skins, and Nat's are big here. Nothing beats the 'ol Pizza Junction pizza in NT- I think they are now called 'The Good Guys' and moved to the corner of Ruie and Nash(?). Man, each slice weighs like 5 lbs! Have you ever gone to Jimmy's in Herndon? Pizza Junction is still around, but Good Guys was two managers from PJ's that left and started their own place. Very similar food but much better, IMO.
