The Senator Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I'm not sure I got my answer here. So what you are all saying is that Buffalo is full of bars but not a single night club? There is not one single place anywhere in the city that has club-style dj;s and dancing? No place that even attempts to resemble a NYC or Toronto night spot? If true that's pretty sad. PTR Now that you mention it, there really hasn't been anything resembling an upscale, well-heeled, dress-to-the-nines, high-energy, Euro-trash-type dance club since the Coliseum turned into Darcy McGee's about 5 years ago or more. There used to be 3 or 4 different 'clubs' w/in that complex - the Rhino Room cigar bar, and a place that would have fit the description of nightclub/dance bar - Vogue (?), I think - one floor up. Anyway, it's all pretty much just bars on the Chip Strip, Allentown, Elmwood, and now Hertel Ave is starting to buzz with some new places - some nice bars, but not the glitzy NYC kind of 'clubs' you're talking about. And you're right - it is sad.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 atlanta aint what it use to be. They pretty much broke up the Buckhead night life. The Ray Ray incident brought a lot of bad elements and eventually the bars got sick of dealing with the crap loitering outside and scarring of customers. There are still pockets/ areas to go out in. but the buckhead hayday is gone.
Wacka Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Isn't he around 35? To be good for that long, he isn't partying the night away (at least during the season). He'll be gone in the off season.
Hossage Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I have had more than one beer out in buffalo, and I have to say the scene is pretty weak. It it oddly depressed and unfriendly compared to a similar scene in other cities. Chippewa smells like teen spirit.
quikchomp Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I have had more than one beer out in buffalo, and I have to say the scene is pretty weak. It it oddly depressed and unfriendly compared to a similar scene in other cities. Chippewa smells like teen spirit. I think it's actually a great scene if you're looking for good bars. I've brought friends that were born and raised in Miami, that are frequents on South Beach, to Buffalo for a weekend and they all had a blast. If you're looking for clubs...well, yes, very weak.
Glass To The Arson Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 He is WAY to big to go out in Buffalo. People go nuts when they see a backup lineman at Wegmans and TO is gonna be able to go to SOHO? He should get in a limo and head to Toronto. Toronto has the third largest crowd in North America going out on the weekends and it is less than a two hour drive away. I was there this weekend and the nightclubs and bars are amazing. Loaded with beautiful women of all types! so funny!!!!!!!!!!
Glass To The Arson Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 wait..there is a club its la luna on chippewa
BillsFan74 Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I grew up in Buffalo and have lived in NYC, DC, Phila, and FL since. I think Buffalo has a great bar scene, they do not have the clubs, like the 4040 etc where the clebs hang out. So it depends on what people call nightlife, my guess is TO would enjoy Toronto more than Buffalo's nightlife since there are more "clubs" there.
PromoTheRobot Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub Look mami I got the X if you into taking drugs I'm into having sex, I ain't into making love So come give me a hug if you into to getting rubbed PTR
PushthePile Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I think it's actually a great scene if you're looking for good bars.

It is a great scene if that's what your looking for and personally I think it's alot of fun. I was just in Miami for a month working and I ran into alot of people who love partying in WNY. It was a nice suprise to hear that.
The Rev.Mattb74 ESQ. Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I cant offer to much of an opinion on Buffalo nightlife because I am older, a father, and married now.(A wild night is sipping some Johnny Walker before bed). However I was stationed at Ft Hood in the 90's(93-99) and there is nothing that comes close to 6th street in Austin TX. That is where the Cowboys hold training camp, I cant imagine anything anywhere in WNY or the surounding areas competeing with that
The Senator Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 wait..there is a club its la luna on chippewa no, we are talking about... a club not... la luna
lets_go_bills Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Buffalo has a nightlife, it just pales in comparison to big cities like New York and Dallas, etc.
PushthePile Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 no, we are talking about... a club not... la luna Hilarious!
Fingon Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I assume you mean Ted Rogers. I really doubt he cares about Terrell Owens.
DrDawkinstein Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 no, we are talking about... a club not... la luna more like "LOLuna" AMIRITE?!?!
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Baltimore is a SH*T city the skyline blows too BUT, BUT, BUT THERE'S FELL'S POINT! and an Applebee's in Timonium.
PromoTheRobot Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 I assume you mean Ted Rogers. I really doubt he cares about Terrell Owens. I meant whoever is running the Rogers empire these days. I know Ted is currently unavailable. If I were them I'd get T.O. his own condo in Toronto and encourage him to spend as much time there as possible. T.O in T.O. PTR
zow2 Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 WHo was that Bills player a few years ago that used to commute in from Toronto? He was so enamored with that World class city that he lived there during the season. A bit nuts if you ask me but maybe that will be TO. BTW, is TO married? does he have a family? you never hear about his personal life. If he's a single-35 yr old, party dude then Buffalo for a yr or two won't be so bad. The media makes such a big deal about it being a "boring" town for him. It's not like he'd have to move his whole clan there. The guy can eat wings and have some beers with his teammates after practice and on his days off- go to Toronto, NYC or wherever the hell else he needs to be seen.
PromoTheRobot Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 BUT, BUT, BUT THERE'S FELL'S POINT! and an Applebee's in Timonium. I lived in Baltimore. There's only 50x more things to do there than Buffalo so I don't get the put down. PTR
