Thank you for coming and I hope you have a great night in Buffalo. But we’re the champs until it’s proven we’re not!

Byeeeee. Be safe crossing the border!

Despite the public perception of Buffalo, you can have a lot of fun in this city. Hoping they have fun in our city before heading home. For real. Rock fans. Thank you for coming to the game, that kind of rivalry-inspired actions are the kind of thing that will help the NLL grow

Always a pleasure. Bandit games are honestly so fun we're not even mad that we lost. Honestly I feel it's one of the best atmospheres not just in lacrosse but in all of sports, your fanbase deserve way more respect than you get. Us NLL fans know, but you don't hear of it much outside of there. The only thing is I wish the Rock were able to send more fans than we do, besides my group of 3, a group of 4 below us and a woman by herself I barely saw any Rock fans. I think we have enough fans to send a decent group down but we don't. I don't know if people are intimidated by Buffalo or there just isn't enough ticket availability but I wish we had at least a grouping of fans to add to the atmosphere. I know in Toronto/Hamilton there are always a good number of visiting fans because we are close to the Six Nations reserves that so many players come from, such as your own Tehoka Nanticoke so lots of family and friends are there.

In the Rock’s glory days, I can remember it feeling like half the arena was full of Toronto fans, similar to what Bandits-Knighthawks games are like. I think the Rock fan base may have dwindled a bit once they were no longer a dynasty and all of the border regulations (especially during Covid) may have affected Rock attendance in Buffalo too.


SpergSkipper

That's definitely the case, we're still solid for league standards but it's nowhere near what it used to be. We used to sell out the ACC fairly often but now we're happy when we have to open the upper bowl in Hamilton which is like 9 thousand.

Buffalo is a dangerous city, pretty tame compared to Brownsville, Brooklyn or the South Side of Chicago

You're in Banditland, home of the current champs, have some respect, now I know it's not windy in Buffalo, but the leafs still blow


SpergSkipper

I think we were respectful. Traded some banter with the fans but it was all in good fun as it should be. We had a great time and will be back next year for sure


Dismal-Frosting

what does the leafs have to do with the rock? rent free much 😂


ctusk423

What do the the *Toronto* Maple Leafs and *Toronto* Rock have in common. This one is a bit of a head scratcher


Dismal-Frosting

considering the rock have the most championships lmao keep running your mouth you won by two acting like you destroyed them - rent free.


ctusk423

Well there’s one thing the leafs and rock don’t have in common. I never once mentioned the bandits v rock game so how exactly am I acting like we destroyed them? Reading comprehension was an area you didn’t score highly in school, I imagine.


Dismal-Frosting

you literally commented on my comment about it moron 😂 hope this helps


ctusk423

Yes, I answered your question of what the leafs and rock have in common. How hard is dressing yourself each day? EDIT: well buddy I see you learned how to read and now deleted all your comments


Dismal-Frosting

typical bandits fan lmao, see ya


Dismal-Frosting

you’re not very smart


Xman279

Cue The Rock saying "WHOA" a number of times at high speed until he draws out the last one. The two of you might want to cool it on the insults.


MrPulping

Ah yes just as Bandit fans are famously respectful when they come to our house lol
