WHEN I SAW MY FIRST ARENA GAME ON T.V. ( ARENA BOWL '87 ) I WAS AMAZED AT HOW DIFFERENT AND EXCITING IT WAS. I LOOKED FORWARD TO THE DAY BUFFALO WOULD HAVE A TEAM. IN 1998 MY DREAM CAME TRUE WHEN IT WAS ANNOUNCED THAT BUFFALO WAS GETTING A TEAM !! WHEN TICKETS WENT ON SALE MY FRIEND & I SPLIT SEASON TICKETS . I STILL HAVE THAT FIRST ARENA BOWL ON TAPE, AS WELL AS THE FIRST DESTROYERS GAME . LOOKING AT BOTH TAPES IT IS AMAZING HOW THE GAME HAS CHANGED!! ON THE PAGES THAT FOLLOW ARE ITEMS THAT CELEBRATE THE DESTROYERS HISTORY IN BUFFALO. ENJOY !!!
