ChevyVanMiller Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 Found this on ebay. Bills Pennant Either someone went to the printers early or they're counting on bids from gullible Bills fans.
Realist Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I have a friend who's father was in the printing business and during the latter stages of that game they were quickly printing out T-shirts, sweatshirts and pennants. After the game they were supposed to destroy all of them or something, well they kept a few for themselves for nostalgias sake. That would have been cool to get one of those. I wonder if this pennant is one of theirs.

I can name a lot of places in Honduras or Nicaragua that can use some T-shirts and hats. When I went to visit Nicaragua, I saw some incorrect chamionship gear.
Like A Mofo Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 It hurts looking at that.... 320844[/snapback] Ditto
SF Bills Fan Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I was at a Pak-n-Sav in Oakland and saw a woman wearing a Buffalo Bills Super Bowl Champions t-shirt. It's a bit startling.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 In an alternate universe somewhere, people are waving those with pride...
Grant Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 And the thing is, the "Bills - Champions" thing looks so... natural.
col_forbin Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 In an alternate universe somewhere, people are waving those with pride... 321032[/snapback] I'm doing it in mine

Marv Levy Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I shouldn't have clicked the link. Now I'm hurting!! Ohhhh the pain! Will we ever get our bowl and cup?? Please!?
SilverNRed Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 In an alternate universe somewhere, people are waving those with pride... 321032[/snapback] Bullcrap, all of us are living in the alternate universe where the Bills lost. The real universe is the one where we WON four straight Super Bowls.
Ramius Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 my grandfather has a Bills Super Bowl XXV champions hat...so yes the stuff is out there...
SuperBills12 Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 even if we win the super bowl this year, it will never erase the ghosts of 1990 - 1993 for me....ill always remember the emotional tearful outbursts as a kid i need a shrink, whose with me?
Buckeye Eric Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 Yep. I have a 8x10 glossy photo card with photos of BS, TT, JK put out by a sports card company congratulating the Bills on their XXV win...
crazyDingo Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I'd like to buy a crate of those and plaster Norwood's house with them.
Dan Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I don't know about anyone else. But, I was watching the Bills 92 season and the Comeback games on NFL Network this weekend. And ya know what, I had a revelation, especially after Tasker (I think) said its tougher to go to 4 consecutive than it is to win 1. What if we won that first Superbowl? I doubt we'd have went to 4 straight, once we got to taste the victory. So, then I wondered... is it better to go to a Superbowl and win it, then suck again (like the Ravens) or is it better to accomplish what Buffalo did and go to 4 straight? After contemplation, I'm glad it came out like it did and we have the distinction of going to 4 straight. Now that shows a great team. Hell, every year someone goes and wins. But, how often does a team dominate like we did? (Regardless we still beat the Giants.)
Mike32282 Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I bought one of those on ebay. I also have a NY Yankees 2001 World Series Champions pin.

I have had that SB XXV champs pennant hanging in my basement for 5 years or so. I thought it would be kinda' funny. A bunch of us gather to watch all the road games in the basement, and none them or any guest as yet has ever noticed the error.
