"716"...it's just an area code, right? Not here in Western New York, it's not! It's a day to celebrate all things that are special to Western New York and the Niagara Frontier from the Harborfront to Niagara Falls...Highmark Stadium to Sahlen Field.
If you're a lifelong resident of Western New York, you know that 716 Day is a day to celebrate everything Buffalo. As you know 716 is the are code that comprises most of Western New York the so on July 16th, we celebrate all that IS Buffalo and Western New York as if it was a national holiday.
716 Day only comes once a year. It's something they normally say about Christmas. But this year, Christmas is going to come twice...and it's for a great cause.
