The next PFRA Convention (2018) will be held in Buffalo, NY. Details will be announced over the next several months. I hope to see everyone there!!

I am beyond excited that the 2018 convention will be held in my hometown... the great city of Buffalo, NY! I thought I heard a rumor that 2018 would be held at NFL Films? Did those plans fall through or did I imagine that I read or heard that?

There were rumors of having it there in 2017, but no official meeting will be held there next year.

Buffalo was a bit of a surprise; I was expecting it to be held in Baltimore to coincide with the release of the 1958 Colts book and also with the 60th anniversary of the 1958 Champions. I've been to Buffalo once before back in December 1993 to see a Bills Raiders game, and one of the things I didn't like was that the stadium is about 10 miles south of downtown. It will still be a good time; I'm already looking forward to making a return trip to the Anchor Bar, which is where the Buffalo Wings were invented in the 60's.

The 3rd best wings in the city. After the 9-11 Tavern and Gabriel's Gate.

That's it...we're trying all 3!

I'm hoping to take in a CFL game in Hamilton that weekend.
