That's pretty cool. You were a 49ers fan as a kid? They had some good teams.
My dad was never a big football fan and when he did watch football it was CFL, so the 89 Super Bowl was the first NFL game I really watched as a kid. I watched it with my dad and he asked me who I was going to cheer for. I chose the 49ers and have been a fan ever since. Probably because they won. Might have selected a different team if they lost. Most people I knew growing up cheered for the Bills since they were the closest team to us.

It's interesting how geographically spread out the Bills fan base is. I was rooting for the Bills against the Giants for the Norwood Nightmare. I know NYC football fans who switched from Giants/Jets to Bills fans as being the only real NY team after the flight to New Jersey.

I even met a Bills fan in Texas a couple years back. The Bills are quite popular in southern Ontario. Around 15% of Bills season ticket holders are from Canada.
