I don't know what universe you're living in, but Buffalo is much better today than it was in 1980. I lived inthere in 1980 and I still live there. Downtown was rough in 1980.... you'd get mugged on Chippewa... the waterfront was just empty lots and industrial wasteland.... sheesh!

And all except Rich Products are gone! Downtown is filled with Alcoholics, Drug Attics, Street Hustlers and Homeless people who are homeless by choice, not job downsizing, business shut down, or a pandemic. There is nothing to be proud about Buffalo, I was born and raised here and it's only getting worse. The Mayor Jimmy Griffin, who was mayor (don't see him in this commercial) at the time this commercial aired, was a racist! He fought with everyone. Type in Jimmy Griffin and the talk show AM Buffalo. He only took care of South Buffalo, his own Irish neighborhood. If you were Black, and lived on the East side, you were not proud.

In the era of 1973, the area around Chippawa was terrible and there was an effort made to counter the bad impression so the Talking Proud promos were created by Comstock Advertising/Heally Schutte & Comstock as public service media campaigns. They ran for quite a few years.
