The Bandettes at the Bandits-Wings game

Coming off a 16-7 thrashing on the Philadelphia Wings, the Bandits returned home to host the same Wings on Saturday night at HSBC Arena in front of 15,344 Buffalo fans. Unfortunately, the anger that the Wings team had because of last week's game showed more in the Bandits as the home team took a large number of undisciplined penalties in a 10-9 loss in front of their home fans.

Prior to the game, the Bandettes greeted fans coming into the game. Some children jumped at the chance to pose for pictures with the beauties that make up the Bandettes. Some little boys took a little more coercing from their parents...and in a few years some of those same little boys will be kicking themselves when they didn't pose with the Bandettes.

Coming up next for the Bandettes, after the Bandits take a week off for the All-Star Break, they return to HSBC Arena on March 5 as the Bandits host their Thruway rivals, the Rochester Knighthawks. Bandettes posters may be available at this game as the girls did their poster shoot before yesterday's game.
