BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The Buffalo Bandits celebrated their recent NLL Championship with a banner-raising ceremony Saturday night in front of a sold-out crowd at the KeyBank Center.
This is the team's sixth championship and second NLL title in a row.
The Buffalo Bandits have started their title defense off strong. Buffalo is 3-0 and defeated the Rochester Knight Hawks 13-6 in their home opener, with the first goal coming 22 seconds into the game.
"It's everything. I love Buffalo sports. I grew up loving Buffalo sports. The Bills, the Sabres, but the Bandits are the only ones with a Championship," said fan Kyle Garrison. "Back-to-back championships, how could we ask for anything else?"
"We're going to win a lot. The Bandits are probably the best team," said 9-year-old fan Roman Cammilleri.
The next Bandits home game is in two weeks, when they host the Toronto Rock on Friday, January 10.
