I completley agree with you about the damn bandwagon fans. At the beginning of last year no one knew anyone on the sabres. Then the end of the year comes and everyone loves the sabres cuz they start doing good. Now all these bandwagon fans have bought ALL the jersey and tickets. The true fans can only get tickets in the high 300 level if they can even find them. You'll notice that games where the Sabres are either blowing a team out or are losing by two goals or so the entire 100 level starts to leave. Thats cuz these people are those god damn bandwagoners. I think its pretty cool the sabres are starting to get noticed but i hate how its only cuz there doing good and their own Buffalonian fans wouldnt even care bout them if thtey were doing bad.

How can the real fans be pushed out? If they have enough money they will have season's tickets. If they don't have enough money for season's tickets, they will still buy tickets for individual games. It's no secret that a team's success drives ticket sales. Look at Edmonton last year in the playoffs. All of a sudden tickets go from available to hard to find.
It may also be that there are far more "real fans" than you were aware of, just now they are going to the arena instead of watching at home on TV.

It's been a little frustrating for me trying to buy tickets this season. It was always easier then this finding tickets. But, I try and look on the bright side. I think it's great that the games are selling out because it's just more reassurance that the Sabres aren't going to be leaving Buffalo anytime soon. And that is good news to a life long fan like me.
Let's go Buffalo!!

I have been a Sabres fan ever since i was a kid. I may not live in Buffalo anymore but i still have got tickets for a game when i am going to visit relatives. Although it was hard to get them. You can't stop the real fans from getting the tickets. At least its no longer just a sell out when the leafs are in town. Damn leafs fans are annoying. But at least they route for thier team no matter how bad they suck @ss!

Because people conform to whatever's big just so they won't feel out of place. They're insecure basically. Plus, it's Buffalo. When was the last time that city has ever won anything? When the Bills lost the Super Bowl? Somewhere around there.
And to the person who said that Toronto fans are the rudest...yeah, totally agree with you. I live in Toronto and it's a hellhole here. I've been to New York City too, and I can honestly say that Torontonians are much dumber, and more rude than the 9 million people in the Big Apple. The only positive thing in this city are the Leafs. God, I can't wait to get out of here...
Oh, almost forgot...Go Leafs.

They like a team that is doing good. Everyone jumps on the bandwagon of a team that does good. That is why in the NFL the Colts have all these fans that don't care about football. They just want to cheer on a team they expect to win.

a million. Are you chuffed that Theo has chosen to no longer make any drastic strikes? No. the recent Steinbrenners have shown that they are prepared to open up the checkbook and could signal and signal and signal as many proper-notch gamers as they could. Theo should be able to compete and meaning getting adult men like Halladay/Holliday & Bay/Gonzalez in the experience that they change into accessible. there continues to be a range of of time to make those strikes, and if the Sox do no longer make some significant strikes to strengthen, they are going to be searching up on the Yankees lower back. 2. might want to you be ok if the promote out chain is damaged faster or later contained in the 2010 season? It received't ensue, barring any problems with Fenway Park itself. yet who cares, quite? we do not bypass to video games for the ambience, we bypass for the product on the field. and perhaps a lot less persons on the former ballyard will supply me some extra leg room. 3. might want to you even bypass as a procedures to assert that you may want to be at liberty if the purple Sox weren't that reliable this 3 hundred and sixty 5 days and also you may want to be at liberty that the bandwagon fell off? i'd like to work out the pinkhats disappear, yet, as extra time passes, the pinkhats have change into extra knowledgable. it is like they're 5 years previous now. perhaps we are able to coach them the thanks to study (a scorecard) this summer season.

Who's jumping to Buffalo's bandwagon? True fans stick to their team, no matter what happens. That's why Leafs fans are the only true fans. We've been with our team ever since the beginning and have stuck with them for the last 40 years, even if they didn't get a Cup. Did Ranger fans stick with their team during their Cup drought? Don't think so. GO LEAFS GO!!!! I know the Leafs are going to repay the fans for their loyalty with a Cup parade in June!!!

Because people love a winner, the Sabres might be the Buffalo team to win anything, so every one want to be a part of it. At least their better Maple Leafs fans that love a loser.

bandwagoning happens in every sport..what defines a real fan in your opinion..personally i would prefer to stay at home and watch or go to someplace like dave & busters to watch a game..and maybe cause the bills suck so bad people are finally realizing what a great game hockey is and how great the sabres really are
