Any know what this was about? A little after 1pm today (12/7) I was heading into Buffalo on the 190 near the Peace Bridge and met two tour buses with what I thought said “Honor Guard” on the front display being escorted front, rear and to the side by police with their lights going. Plus there were a few cops following this parade.

At first I thought maybe the Bills for the Toronto game but they would have been up there earlier than that. Looked around on the news sites and didn’t really see anything either.

honor guard military wise is a team that presents colors (flags) and does flag ceremonies for old vets at their funerals or similar things…i.e. 21 gun salute. but i dont know what it was for.

The game isn’t until 4, and it’s only a 1.5hr drive (good day, 2.5 bad day) so yeah, probably for the Bills game.

Probably returning troops. When I came home in may they had tons of cops and even fire trucks escorting our two busses. Almost made a vet cry like a school girl.

Today on 290 there were about a dozen white vans and only one or two had plates (from Georgia). Kinda wierd, don’t know what that was.
