PromoTheRobot Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 (edited) A win and the Bandits are in the finals against either Albany or San Diego. Edited May 5 by PromoTheRobot 1 Quote
mudberry Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Thanks for the heads up. I've caught a few games on Hulu, but living on the other side of the country I lose track of the season. Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted May 5 Author Report Posted May 5 Albany has an 11-7 lead with 12 minutes to go. If they win the NLL finals start in Albany. Close enough for me to drive if the Bandits are there. Quote
pastajoe Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Can’t the Bandits win a face off? They look like the Sabres. 1 Quote

JustOneParade Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 Nice to watch a TO-Buffalo game in KBC with the lower bowl full of Buffalo fans. 2 Quote

JustOneParade Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 For those who can’t watch … Bandits were down 8-4 in the 4th. Now leading 10-8. Crowd is insane! 1 minute ago, PromoTheRobot said: Did you see game 1 in Hamilton? Half Bandits fans. Did not. Great to hear tho. Can’t wait to get Sabres crowds like this. Quote

K-9 Posted May 5 Report Posted May 5 First Bandits game I’ve watched this season. It seems like each time I watch them, they are a 4th quarter juggernaut. Quote

The Rock hasn't beat the Bandits in the playoffs for a very long time. So you know that was in their heads in the 4th.. When Buffalo got to within a goal it was over. 1 Quote

Indabuff Posted May 6 Report Posted May 6 Walked out next to a couple of TO fans who said they follow the Rock to different cities. First time for them in Buffalo and said nothing else comes close to the Bandits experience. They commented on the traffic jam here saying all 12 of the TO fans' cars would have gotten out of the parking lot no problem, haha. Quote
Big Guava Posted May 6 Report Posted May 6 4th straight Finals appearance for the Bandits...hoping to win 2 straight and even their record at 2-2 over that time Quote
JohnC Posted May 6 Report Posted May 6 I watched most of the game. I'm not knowledgeable enough on the sport to intelligently comment about the play. What I can say as a sports fan is that this was an entertaining game to watch. What was impressive and stood out to me is that the house was packed and the fans were into the game from the start to the finish. It seemed as if 80% of the fans were wearing Bandit gear. Maybe someday soon our hockey team can elevate their play and earn their way into having a consistently packed arena with an engaged audience. We still have a way to go to get to that point. Quote

Bandit games are the most fun live sporting events I have ever been to... That includes Bills, Sabres, Bisons and an assortment of other NHL, MLB and NFL teams as well. Honestly not even close IMO. 1 Quote
