New Era Celebrates One Year Downtown

I asked New Era's Tania Castillo about the some of the latest featured releases that will be available for purchase on that day. "We'll have the “AUD” and Buffalo-inspired caps... they are the adjustable style perfect for stocking stuffers. We just released a new product line of Buffalo and Sabres' related caps. The exclusive caps will be available to the public on that day. Fans can also check out the temporary Sabres Memorabilia Museum. The items in that display have been donated by a major collector who has reached out to us to display his extensive collection."

Carl's Constitutional Convention
Carl Paladino is shaking it up once again, and next to the calling for the toll barriers to come down, this may be a hit with the general public.
"I'm asking our legislative candidates to vote for a Constitutional Convention," Paladino said. "This can happen every twenty years, the last time being 1996, but it hasn't been done since 1938."
Paladino's objective, he says, is to get both houses to vote by majority for a referendum on the ballot. This, he explains, would put to vo … - Today, 1:28pm

Hoax Revisited
The Nicole Kidman/Studio Arena hoax that recently hit the media is an opportunity for some discussion about the way news travels these days, and begs comment on the phrase "Any publicity is good publicity".
After speaking with someone closely related to Studio Arena, who wishes to stay anonymous, it seems like the Kidman hoax was timed perfectly—in order to circumvent corroboration—and named just the right names in order to look plausible. Add to that the fact that many of t … - Today, 12:51pm

Local Advertising Firm To Receive National Attention
For over a decade, PRINT Magazine has been publishing a Regional Design Annual. This homage to graphic design receives more than 20,000 individual entries and only around two hundred are chosen as worthy entries into the yearly publication. They whittle down the entries in a stringent process of selection, picking only 5% of the first-rate winners from each region of the country that represent the best design, illustrations, and photography in the United States.

Casino Construction Suspension
Now that the Senecas have suspended construction on both their embattled Buffalo Creek Casino and an expansion on their Salamanca site, the question is for how long and why.
Seneca Gaming Corporations (SGC) Public Relations Manager Philip Pantano says that the time frame is indefinite and the reason is based on a downturn in casino operations across the country, though he says the Seneca facilities have experienced growth of double-digit increases in the last two quarters.

On site graffiti artists? Maybe "HERT ATACK" will have a stupid moment and accidentally show up and give away his/ her/ their identities and be quickly whisked away to a detention facility.

New Era is a great neighbor and I am not picking on them. The last thing I would normally want to do is rain on their parade. They have nice employees and great attitudes. It is a great pleasure having many of them as my personal friends. Glamorizing graffiti is not good public relations. Glamorizing any attitude or behavior that inhibits the forward movement of Buffalo is not good public relations in this, our new era of high hope and expectations for our city. However, I think inviting graffiti vandals is a good opportunity for the Buffalo Police graffiti task force to collect intel. I am also planning on attending so that I can drag their sorry asses over to my place to help me remove their art from my building.
I appeal to our good neighbors at New Era to reconsider promoting graffiti at their December 15th event -for the city’s sake as well as for their own public relations ramifications. Can you imagine the news stores that would result from this decision? All of the good that New Era Cap has done will be overlooked and the stories will all focus on the stupid graffiti promotion. They did the right thing when they cancelled their production of custom gang hats. Remember? I have to believe that New Era Cap will reconsider and wind up dropping the graffiti promotion from their event.
Thank you. This has been a public service announcement.

Guys, I doubt they mean CRIMINAL Graffiti artists...it's probably artists who are stylistically "graffiti" but who are actually given permission by the property owners.

I heard they didn't really want the graffiti guys but the homeless urinators were booked.
Just joking. Happy anniversary New Era.
