[ASFN Admin]

It was not on the gridiron but Buffalo fans showed out and impressed once again.

The crosstown hockey team of the Bills, the NHL's Sabres, played their first playoff game in 14 years on Sunday evening. Even with the tough scheduling for some fans, Buffalo was there showing their heavy support against the Boston Bruins.

In a 4-3 win, sports fans in Buffalo went wild watching their team, similar to how Bills Mafia does. Such pride caught tons of national attention.

Here's a roundup of national reactions to Buffalo fans backing their Sabres:
