This is a picture from when my Dad was an Iron Worker and was working on the project to raise the roof on the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium where the @buffalosabres played until 1996. He is standing on the steel beam on the top right. It’s a great shot as was on exhibit at Albright Knox a few years ago. (I will find out who took the picture and posy later for proper credit) I have been a fan since I was 5 years old. I worked in concessions at the Aud from 1989 to 1994 while I was in College and saw some incredible hockey games. I worked in the Oranges where I also had to play bouncer for a bunch of little older ladies who made the place run. I was 19 and they loved working with me and me with them. I watched so many games from the SRO spots at the top of the Aud. I also worked in the Reds as a Pizza guy, and in The Lounge as a Roast Beef Carver and Fried Bologna sandwich cook. Kent Hull and Will Wolford used to come down to visit me for fried bologna sandwiches and would hang out and talk. They happened to be friends of the family and when they came with their wives their wives would come down and hang out and talk during the games. I remember seeing Perrault, Andreychuck, Housley, Playfair, Mogilny, LaFontaine, Malarchuk, Hawerchuk, Ray, May, etc. I remember working with “The Earl of Bud” and Conehead and going for beers after the game with my friends I worked with. I remember the Sabres being in the playoffs and sweeping the Bruins the losing to Montreal and Roy in 4 straight (all 1 pt games and 3 OT games). It was awesome hockey! @wgr550 @theinstigatorsshow @martybiron43 @everything_sabres @sabres.check @rivs52 @andrewpeters @robray32 @drewhull13 @buffaloproud @kimpegula @buffalophotoblog @_buffalorising @buffaloproud . . . . . . #buffalony #buffalony716 #buffalosabres #buffalomemorialauditorium #buffalorising #716 #716buffalo #80snight #buffaloproud #bufnyc #buftonyc #nyclifestyle #newyorker #buffalo #buffalonewyork #buffalosports #nhl #nhlhockey #nyc #buffalophotography #buffalohistory #albrightknoxartgallery #nycmanofmanytalents #localtourist #sabres #sabresfan #buffalosabresfan (at Buffalo Memorial Auditorium) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5-7QYnHJR9/?igshid=hv0gwfs6gc6j
