I have a few very good friends that live up there...one of which did 22 years in the Navy and went back there after service, and refuses to live anywhere else. It's not like she hasn't seen the world and lived in many other places, she chooses to live there and wouldn't have it any other way.Let’s be honest. If you lived in Buffalo, wouldn’t you love to get out of that dreary place to spend a few days in South Florida? You almost have to feel sorry for anyone stuck living in Buffalo.
The good people up there that stay there and build lives are generally proud of Buffalo. It's not Miami Beach, but not everybody wants Miami Beach. I live out in the country, nearest city is San Antonio. Couldn't pay me to live in a big city. If I had to choose between Buffalo and Miami only - I'd be a Fins fan living in enemy territory.
To each their own.
