1. You forget that other people in the world have never experienced Sahlen's hot dogs.
Ballpark Franks? Hebrew Nationals? Oscar Mayer? NO thank you, I don't want one of your knock-off hot dogs.
2. You truly have no sports credibility.
But you'll be sure to use any win or title to your advantage against your friends teams... about a million times.
"Yeah yeah we know you won the Super Bowl, Patriots, but we beat you last year. And we produced Gronk for you, so you're welcome."
3. No one knows what a "brush burn" is.
To everyone else it's a "turf burn" or a "rug burn" or a "____ burn," but we Buffalonians are smart and just clump it into one category—a brush burn.
(Going to pass on this picture...)
4. That "Upstate New York" is the only term Non-New Yorkers know... Other than "New York City."
NO!!! Buffalo is Western New York. We do not consider ourselves Upstate.
5. People consider Buffalo Wild Wings, buffalo wings.
A) I'm so sorry for you. Come to a city that knows how to whip wings up.
B) Notice how I just called them "wings."
6. You cringe at the fact that people not only eat Taco Bell, but they actually like it.
Mighty Taco is the only place to go. Buffalonians are the most loyal fast-food taco enthusiasts.
7. You're able to explain the progression of Major League baseball players, thanks to the Buffalo Bisons.
Yes, we know players from the MLB came from Triple-A... we've been watching them play for years.
8. Some people never have to deal with data roaming charges on a daily basis.
We've all been there: You're driving on the 190 to work downtown, and you get that God-forsaken text, "Welcome abroad! To call back to the U.S. dial..."
9. You take Niagara Falls for granted.
Haven't you seen all the tourist buses?! People actually travel around the world for something that is right in our back yard. It's a pretty amazing landmark, and we don't even realize it.
10. People think the Goo Goo Dolls song "Broadway" is about NYC's Broadway.
Wrong. The song is about the neighborhood that lead singer, Joh Rzeznik grew up in... In Buffalo, New York.
11. You'll miss it more than anything.
Buffalo, New York—The Queen City. A city where every football Sunday is celebrated like it's the Super Bowl, six feet of snow is no big deal, and things are always looking up. There's no place like home (Buffalo.)
