Tailgating...Buffalo Style!!

Football, it's become America's passion, its favorite sport. It has surpassed baseball as its favorite pasttime and nowhere is this more evident than at the football stadiums around the NFL, where fans gather together and celebrate before the games and after. They even celebrate after losses, a feeling of togetherness with 75,000 other people with the same love, the love of football.

How do all these fans celebrate? By tailgating, partying with fellow fans in the parking lots. In some cities, however, there are those that rise above others. Some NFL teams have tailgaters who are the best in the game. Buffalo is one of those teams. The Commissioner of tailgating regularly proclaims the Buffalo Bills tailgaters among his favorites and someone who travels to every NFL city every year should know whereof he speaks. What sets Buffalo apart, though? Is it the passion the fans have for their team or the unique characters like the Pinto Guy or the Helmet Guy that help set apart Buffalo Bills tailgaters from the rest? There's no easy answer. There are some recipes that come from Buffalo and there seem to be enough tailgaters who are prepared for anything that no Buffalo tailgate party turns out to be a failure.

The best thing about Buffalo tailgaters is the way they welcome you into their parties and no one does it better than the Pinto Guy.
