Let it snow: Bills players, fans brave wintry conditions in Buffalo

Buffalo quarterback Nathan Peterman tries to throw a pass during the second quarter Sunday. Snowy conditions made visibility difficult during the game. Peterman suffered a head injury later in the game and was forced to the bench.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Buffalo Bills cornerback Tre’Davious White did his best to stay warm before Sunday’s game in western New York.

It wasn’t working.

The Bills were hosting the Indianapolis Colts at New Era Field, and players, coaches and fans were exposed to a strong snowstorm.

During warm-ups Sunday, White did his best to avoid becoming frozen. He danced and moved to stay warm. As a native of Shreveport, Louisiana, it is unlikely that White has ever seen conditions like this: temperatures below 30 degrees when the game began at 1 p.m., winds out of the west at 18 mph, a wind chill that made the temperature feel like 16 degrees, and visibility of less than a third of a mile.

The players weren’t the only ones cold. Fans braved the chilly weather to cheer for the Bills.

And you can’t say the fans in Buffalo don’t have a sense of humor.
