Throwback Photo Shows How Much Better Buffalo Sports Is Today

It is a good time to be a sports fan here in Western New York.

The Buffalo Bills have been playing well the past couple of years making the playoffs and are the favorite to win the Super Bowl this upcoming season.

The Buffalo Sabres are finally playing like a team are having fun, and are a team that fans want to go watch win or lose.

The Bisons are back in Buffalo after being on the road all last year when the Toronto Blue Jays took over Sahlen Field.

The Buffalo Bandits are back to their winning ways and look like a real threat to win the NLL championship.

Of course, we all know that this could be 100% different. If you are a Buffalo sports fan you know there are plenty of lows that come with the current highs we have. From the 17-year playoff drought for the Bills to the mishandling of superstars by the Buffalo Sabres. You have to enjoy the good times when you can.

It is really amazing out different the sports culture is here in Buffalo in 2022. It could have been so much worse.

Check out this old photo from 2016 that I saw posted on Twitter. Imagine if none of the changes that took place from this photo happened. Buffalo sports would be in a heap of trouble.

Where would Buffalo sports be today if those changes didn't happen? I don't even want to think about it!
