Phrases and other things only a Bills fan would know

[Just Jack]

I was thinking about this the other day.  What phrases or other things, if seen or mentioned, would only a Bills fan know is Bills related?  Two examples...

 

The Firebaugh Eagles sweatshirts, if you see one, you know that person wearing it is a Bills fan.  

 

The phrases "Look it up Thurman."  Marv used it in his speech for Thurman Thomas's induction to the HOF.  I've used it a few times with co-workers, and they'll just look at me, because they don't know why I called them Thurman. But if it's a Bills fan, they know it.  

 

Any other examples?

Deep one most Bills fans don’t know. 
 

Big Ben Play! What the Bills called a Hail Mary when it first became legal!

 

Whenever someone says “ I just have a feeling” I always answer with a slight song “ Buffalo going to the Super Bowl”

I do that when I hear the first part of the banana boat song.

I was thinking about Talkin' Proud the other day. 

I was wondering if I remembered right...did they play that after touchdowns at the game (before they switched to Shout)?

That was the early '80s.  You probably don't recall it clearly because they wouldn't have played it very frequently.
