Palm Trees Officially Banned at Keybank Center (Buffalo)

[Lt Dan]

You know what to do Sabres fans

The security there are worthless lying sacks of dogshit. When I questioned their ridiculous no bags allowed policy I pointed out MSG (located above the biggest transportation hub in the country) allows bags and was told this wasn't true and that the bag ban was mandated by the NHL. That is a complete and total lie as proven by me having no trouble bringing a bag into the Sabres-Rangers game at MSG a month back.

You're probably wondering what the hell palm trees are doing in Buffalo. Well, here's the scoop for you.

A week or so ago GM Kevyn Adams said Buffalo can't attract players because Buffalo doesn't have palm trees (among other reasons). Sabres fans, in response, began bringing inflatable palm trees to clown on their GM.

Well, as of last night, they were banned from the stadium. They must be deflated before entering the stadium.



I know we probably don't need another Buffalo thread, but as a Sabres fan...i thought this was comical.

Harold Ballard from another life says, now why didn’t I think of that. Think of all the paper bags I could have saved from the landfill.

Buffalo Funsuckers should be their team name.

How’s the bump scene in Buffalo? Is it that bad? Players ain’t feeling it since it’s so terrible?

 

[HugeInTheShire]

Sabre fans should really start showing up in all black like they're at a funeral.

 

[Dueling Banjos]

Not as tough as being a fan of Palm trees…at least sabres fans are still allowed in the arena.

Or being a palm tree

 

[Primary Assist]

But what if I identify as a Palm Tree?

 

[Fjordy]

I suppose it could be an insult to the players, but still, lame.

Players themselves like memes about palm trees, so it would hardly be an insult.

Are they allowed to inflate them once they’re inside the arena?

 

[End on a Hinote]

Well, how the hell are we supposed to know if it works now?

 

[MeHateHe]

What about those little plastic palm trees you used to get with turtle starter kits? Are those banned too?

 

[Rodgerwilco]

Because god forbid the few loyal fans they had left enjoy themselves at the game they paid good money to attend

I’m not a Buffalo guy but the more I think of this the more irritated i get with it

exactly. I'm not a Buffalo guy either, but I have respect for the city and the fans. Bills fans included.

Any team that has been through the trials and tribulations of being a Sabres fan and still wants to show up to games should be put on a pedestal by management.

Seriously, it's just a total failure...and they didn't even have to go as far as to exalt them. They could have simply allowed the fans to have fun! But now they're going out of their way to f*** themselves up.

I'm madder about it than I should be, but I thought there was no way an organization hates its die hard fans as much as the Kings but Buffalo just upped the ante

 

[Romang67]

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

 

[SomeDude]

This is the best thing to happen to palm trees in quite some time. No longer subject to the torture of Buffalo Sabres hockey.

 

[Ignatius]

Can I wear a Panthers jersey with the big palm tree logo on the front in Buffalo now?

 

[FrozenJagrt]

Let me get this straight. He believes they can't attract talent because of a lack of palm trees. So fans provide palm trees to attract talent and they get banned? How very Buffalo.
