Famous Bar Goes Up in Flames in Buffalo, New York

Arguably the most famous bar in Buffalo, New York is up in flames. The Old Pink which is on the corner of Allen + Mariner is up in flames and it does not look good looking at the footage.

The Buffalo Fire Department is on the scene as of 6 AM.  You can see the sad video here. There were reports that the Buffalo Firefighters had decided not to go into the building because it was too dangerous to go in and fight the fire.

UPDATE: Nobody was in the building and nobody was hurt. As of 7:30 AM the fire is out and under control.

We will keep you posted as the story develops.

EXTRA: Everyone has memories of the Old Pink. It's one of those places where you HAVE to go to at one point if you live in Buffalo. It is infamous for its fried bologna sandwich and the best fried bologna in Western New York.

Do you remember from one of the characters from 'The Office' came to bartend at the Old Pink? It was a memory for the ages. Kevin from 'The Office' was on his way to an event in Rochester, but made a pit stop the night before to stop into the Buffalo bar. Anyone who went got quite the treat. He stayed there a long time. He went there because he heard it was the most iconic bar in the City of Buffalo
