Buffalo: my 1st NHL game "Leafs/Sabres" and...

So on 3.27 I will be in what some call Toronto's southern town (ok, Ive only heard 2 ppl call it that) to see my first NHL game. The GF via her work scored 2 tickets to see the Maple Leafs VS Sabres @ the HSBC Arena. Through a talk lasting a cpl weeks in another section on here, a think-tank of ideas came up of a "what-to-do" while there.

Final listing came up with the following:
-Hockey/Hobby Shops
-Best Wings/good food
-Hard Rock/Metal bars
-sightseeing (in and around Buffalo)

For the most part I believe everything is covered. If there is anything you, a former resident or past visitor of Buffalo you think I could be missing out then LMK. Im always interested into checking out something(s).

I will take photos of the game and I will take a note or two from everyones post on Mike's thread of getting there earlier. I will also like to score some auto's afterwards too.

Thanks everyone ahead of time for suggestions of what to get into and now I just have to show the happenings afterwards.

Get ready to watch the home team mail in the rest of the season! LOL

Seriously though, have fun at your first game...this is an interesting one to see because of the rivalry. The arena is 40% Leafs fans. I was supposed to see my first ever Sabres/Leafs matchup one year ago today, but a friend of the family died here in DC and I had to sell my tickets on ebay immediately.

Thanks

Thanks, again I hope you have a great time. btw, whenever you go to a game after this one at another arena—remember that Buffalo has the cheapest concessions prices you will ever pay!

That's a great game to be going to. Leafs/Sabres games are always an exciting atmosphere. I believe we've already shared all our ideas for what you should do. Have fun. Go Sabres (even though they have sucked lately)
