Dyngus Day Buffalo: Everyone's Polish

Dyngus Day Buffalo: Everyone’s Polish
The World's largest Dyngus Day Celebration proved to be another exceptional event held throughout the city and region. Record setting numbers came out to enjoy dozens of festivities during Easter Monday's unseasonably mild weather.

At the heart of the festival sparkled Buffalo Central Terminal, which bustled with activity ranging from regional Polish food, Polka music and dancers, beer, and thousands of Buffalonians having an unforgettable time.

Buffalo's very own, "Those Idiots" inspired the crowd with their rousing music.

For the first time ever, a large tent was set up outside where people could enjoy more beer, music, and fun which stirred with activity throughout the afternoon and night.

Threats of bodily harm are appropriate?

Agreed. My comment should be deleted too. I guess KM's comments got me upset particularly because they were so deliberate. My reaction to it was probably what he was expecting and wanted. The right thing to do would have been to ignore it and have a piwo instead ;)

Andy, a bleeding heart non-liberal on this site is hard for everyone to deal with.

Editors-

There is nothing inappropriate about historical fact.

Grow up.

Ethnic jokes, in very poor taste, the fact that they are still posted that is. Karl, you must be very unhappy with your lot in life [and a jerk].

Ethnic jokes are in poor taste for those out of touch with mainstream. Go to a bar sometime my friend, or just talk to people outside of you alumni at Wesleyan University.

I don't know what kind of bar's you go to, but in mine we talk about things, not degrade other people. Must be an income level thing I guess.

I'm post racial, sorry. I forgot creating polarization of ethnicity is PC as opposed to everyone getting along and having fun with each other. Keep living in the past and reading your Rod Watson

What do you have against Michael Moore? He is more truthful than that Rush Limbough that all the closed minded ones listen to. Plus he has a really kind heart and is always fighting for the underdog. I respect that in him.

KarlMalone,
I see that you posted a similar racist joke on another blog. Why do you hate the Polish community in particular?

Score: 0 ( 0 votes ) Vote up Vote down Report this comment

I don't. Polish jokes are part of our heritage, just like jokes about the Irish and French. It's part of Buffalo due to our rich history. I'm just not part of the PC crowd who tries to rewrite history. So in closing, I have nothing against the Polish. I love their food and people, it's you I hate.

So, now you're attacking the author of the post (which happens to be very good, especially visually) for comments beyond his control?

@ B4L: keep up the good work. Seeing Krusty get fired up over his posts getting deleted has made my day.
