Buffalo Memorial Aud Commemorated by New Era Cap
Buffalo Rising Magazine commemorates the Aud in this month's issue, with a poignant cover story by Dan Fisher, and New Era is doing the same in the form of a black cashmere, limited edition cap.
Just in time for this weekend's long-awaited auction of memorabilia from the “Aud,” New Era Cap has created 200 of the caps.
Each one is embroidered, and as you can see from the pictures here, the right side reads "1 of 200" while the back of the cap salutes the Aud with a logo that reads "Farewell Old Friend".
New Era will have a booth at the Buffalo Convention Center this weekend, where they'll sell the commemorative caps for $50. These special caps will also be available at the New Era Buffalo flagship in downtown Buffalo on Saturday, and if there are any left--but don't count on it--online at www.neweracap.com after the auction.
Non-fitted caps with alternative designs honoring the Aud will also be available for $20.

A Kennedy Visits Buffalo
Caroline Kennedy was in town for a visit with our mayor yesterday. A possible choice to succeed US Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Kennedy's name has been mentioned along with that of Attorney General Andrew Cuomo (son of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo) and our own Byron Brown, among others.
Certainly, Kennedy has "been around politics" all of her life, which is to say she was born into a family of politicos and lived in the White House--neither of which would necessarily f … - Dec 18th 2008, 7:55am

The NFTA Santa Ride
Well it is Christmas time in the city and the NFTA helped put people and especially children into the mood in a very festive and fun way. One of my favorite memories of childhood was taking the train downtown with my grandfather. I would gaze out the windows and watch the tunnel speed by. It always felt like we were going a million miles an hour.
Then there was the ability to stand up and walk around during the ride without the need to be strapped down. It was always a fun time … - Dec 17th 2008, 4:34pm

lol, for men a nice shirt for $100 or so from the "ultimate mens shop" is to much, "damsel in a dress" was to pricey for women [both closed by the way], yet I bet at 50 bucks these stupid things will fly off the shelf. The only thing I admire about these hats is New Era is smart enough to capitalize on the stupidity of the people that will purchase them.
