Augie Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 It seems it was much louder and more frequent on TV before this year. Did they cut back on it? It did not bother me this year at all. I like something, but the buffalo stampede might be better.

I'd replace with either the stampede footage (Dances with Wolves) or, preferably, the Loyal Order of the Water Buffalo Handshake (Flintstones). Go, Go, Buff-a-lo! I'm an out of towner who has been to 3 games in Buffalo. One was last season. I don't remember hearing a train horn so I have no idea what the poll is all about. There was no clueless option so I'll just abstain from the vote. But Fred Flintstone brought back memories. Pretty sure before the opening kickoff circa 1998 they did a Flintstone Water Buffalo Stampede thing that was pretty cool. #BringBackFredFlintstone
KW95 - JA17 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 The horn always signifies that when team is 3rd and long, its a guaranteed first down. Cheers 1
JESSEFEFFER Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 If you sit anywhere near the frontside of a speaker inside the stadium, you'd probably want it gone.
LabattBlue Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) The train horn is bush league and annoying. Get rid of it. If you want the crowd to be loud, make games more meaningful late in the year. Edited January 4, 2019 by LabattBlue

I think even the players are annoyed by it. When I think of Buffalo I don't think of trains.... Get rid of the stupid horn and put the noise back on the shoulders of the fans.... 1

george c Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 I thought I was just getting old. I gave up 4 Jim Kelly Club tickets because of that damn horn was constantly blowing.. Too annoying to deal with. Wrecked the game experience for us..
cba fan Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 I wish they would stop doing that annoying long horn blow at hockey games.? 1

What is this college ball? Edited January 4, 2019 by SomeDudeAtHome spelling

I like the horn at hockey it signifies a great thing, does not happen all that often in most games, and I love it when a goal wins a big playoff game and the horn guy gets a little overly excited and blows it extra. They use it right in hockey. Edited January 5, 2019 by cba fan 1 1
GreggTX Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 How about the sound of a charging her of bisons instead? 2

junior Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 Love the train horn and the Shout song. I appear to be in the minority on here.
row_33 Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 Shout is... played when a drive ends in a disappointing field goal?
Bad Things Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 I can't attend the games in person, but even on the TV broadcast, the train horn is annoying. Bills fans should not need prompting to get loud on defensive 3rd downs. 1
