2 minutes after the game ended the entire arena was empty. A handful of us Sabres fans tried to stand there and talk about how awesome that game was while Doan was getting interviewed on the bench and TD garden ushers told me I need to get out of our section and exit the building. I wanted to enjoy the postgame jubilance because I paid $700/ticket for me and my buddy to go and sit right behind the Sabres bench. I said okay we’ll head out. This lady called Boston police on me and they escorted me to the stairs and told me if I didn’t “shut up and move it I’d get arrested”. I know it’s my point of view and my experience but I promise I was polite all game and having fun and never did I try to be rude to any opposing fans(except for a group of 4 16-17 year olds that asked me how many super bowls we had and to sit down and shut up) - they were rude. I had to respectfully reply dudes wrong sport! Let’s leave it on the ice. But I was 16 once. I get it. All good. No worries
Mid 1st or 2nd period(can’t remember) during a Sabres PP an usher (Old guy named Rich) came and told me I wasn’t allowed to stand. I asked what do you mean? He said you’re not allowed to stand. You’re blocking the fans view. I sat there dumbfounded and said it’s a playoff game and I’m cheering on my team. What do you mean I can’t stand and cheer? He said you have to sit down or else I’ll have you removed. I was so appalled and didn’t want to get thrown out I sat down and cheered on our boys but I was still so confused. Then 2 Boston fans in front of me went and reported me to the ushers for “screaming in their ears”. The usher(Rich) came again and told me that I need to settle down or else I’d be removed. I was getting heckled all night and I don’t care. I love it. I’m in enemy territory and I expect it. The only thing I was yelling all game was “let’s go Buffalo” or “let’s go boys” after a good play. Just annoying that the guy told me to settle down.
I really can’t believe how soft this entire fanbase is. I wasn’t rude, aggressive, or inappropriate the entire night. Just kept bellowing “LETS GO BUFFALO” and I was treated like trash from 90% of the people I interacted with.
Absolute BS FROM THE BRUINS ARENA STAFF. Like I did all game, I’ll keep it PG (even after going up 4-0 in the 1st when I could’ve been ruthless to you shmucks)…I hope we beat you guys. Your fanbase doesn’t deserve to win anymore. You’re a bunch of jerks Boston
