It's about time Buffalo got some good press. What they said about the sense of community in Western New York is true. You really do feel like WNY is one community. An example of this is when the Bills are playing an important game and everywhere you go, even in grocery stores the game is playing over the intercom. That would never happen downstate. People are just too fractured into their different little niches to care about a common community event.
Yeah the WNY economy sucks, but I wish my son could experience a childhood like I had in WNY. In a lot of ways people in WNY don't realize how good they have it. I'm glad someone is finally recognizing it.
