FanDuel's CEO is a big Bills fan. She makes sure the team is featured in a lot of their commercials.

That makes sense. I ad the thought recently that Buffalo is in a lot of commercials. And there are a lot of gambling commercials these days.

I assume you mean Tennessee. I lived there for four years between 1976 and 1980 when I was in graduate school at what was then Memphis State University. Great city. Great mix of cultures. I just couldn’t take the weather. Way too hot and humid for me. As a lifelong western and central New Yorker I missed those cold nights in Buffalo when I was down there. In the Syracuse area now for 40+ years.

Yes, Memphis TN.  And the summers are HOT as you said.  But then, we moved here from Fairbanks Alaska so anything was going to feel hotter to us.

Where in MS?

 

You looking it?

 

 

Olive Branch, about 20 minutes from Memphis. At age 62, I decided I want to grow old with my college friends. I like the south, like this area, and am loving being back with my 45 year friends. And, 😁 I no longer own a snow shovel.

 

Do you live in this area?

I hadn't caught that it was Norwood selling the Norwood jersey.  What a great add for this commercial.

I wasn't sure if that commercial was showing nationally, or just locally.

 

It brings up sad memories. Larry Bierl, a well known homeless Amherst man froze to death in a bus shelter in 2019.

It’s on nationally.

At least they’re starting to be creative. In past, some lady and creepy man yelling “best parlay!!” at me 1,000 times, booooo.

Agree with the OP. Despite the shot, it’s funny.

No, but my daughter is considering going to MSU.  We're heading down to visit in a bunch of weeks.  

 

I had scouting the best wings place in starkville on my list of to-do's.  LOL  

 

I hear ya on the lack of desire for snow though.  Like many, I live in the mid-Atlantic area.

I like all the negative stuff about buffalo because the people that make all the trash about buffalo lives in LA or NYC or some other cushy place.  As  Marv once said:

I thought it was a cheap shot. Greta joke, it gets cold in Buffalo. Buffalo is Theo not place it ever gets cold apparently!!!

 

That said, Buffalo has gotten a lot of love. But cold jokes are getting corny. 

 

It is done so well, we can afford to laugh at our own expense sometimes too.
