Buffalo 66 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I miss old school BUFFALO! I have been trying to remember who promo the robot was and my dad just filled me in! Most on here are too young but long live Commander Tom! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfxkjsV9mNQ
Rubes Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I think I was on that show once as a kid. Good times.
PromoTheRobot Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 When I was trying to think of a handle I wanted a name that someone my age growing up in Buffalo would get. PTR
San Jose Bills Fan Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 When I was trying to think of a handle I wanted a name that someone my age growing up in Buffalo would get. PTR I remember when you were agonizing over Promo vs The Furry Burry Creature. I think you made the right choice.
stinky finger Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 When I was trying to think of a handle I wanted a name that someone my age growing up in Buffalo would get. PTR No doubt, one of my favorite names on this board. Good, good memories. The commercials that I coincide with Rocketship 7 in my viewing back then? GI Joe's (which I LOVED as a lad) and ........Light Bright.
FitzShowUsYourTitz Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Remember when they used to read your (everyone's) birthday each week? I remember waking up early just to hear my name. Good stuff.

Yes I did the same and I used to wake up early hoping he would announce that my school was closed due to a snow day! Thank God for lake effect in the Southtowns!

CowgirlsFan Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Congrats! All of this reminds me of my TV watching years. My show was called Mickey and Amanda I also watched one called Slam Bang Theatre.
mitchmurraydowntown Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I clutched my Buffalo raceway tickets from Tops when he called the race, my horse never came in. It was almost like I was cursed with every long-shot in the race, my Mom also used a lot of coupons. Do you know where your children are ??

MyHorseAteTheKid Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I remember when Mr. Beeper made his first appearance on Rocketship 7... But that was with Dave Thomas pre Commander Tom.. lol
stevewin Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 I think I was on that show once as a kid. Good times. When I was very little my family went to be in the audience of Dialing for Dollars. My Dad got called up to the stage to 'play', and they had our family stand up in the audience and we got on TV which I remember as quite the thrilling thing at the time. The R7 set was right there too, and I remember vividly the lifeless shell of PTR just sitting there - I kept asking what was wrong with him and my parents just said he was sleeping.
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 When I was trying to think of a handle I wanted a name that someone my age growing up in Buffalo would get. PTR I lik ethe classic promo avatar forgot about the modified one. Great memories as a kid who once got to be on rocketship 7 and dialing for dollars.
