A football team runs onto a field with the text "BUFFALO" visible on their jerseys. Two columns on either side of the entrance shoot fire and smoke into the air. Spectators fill the stands in the background, and cheerleaders stand on the sideline. A group of people sitting in stadium seats. Most wear blue t-shirts with 'Buffalo' and a bull logo, making the 'bull horns' hand gesture. The shirts say 'Buffalo Dance Team,' 'Alumni', 'Buffalo-vs-Everybody' and 'True Blue Through & Through'. At dusk, a silhouetted amusement park ride spins against a vibrant orange and blue sky. The ride's tower is decorated with lights. Trees and a 'CAT' branded truck mark the distant landscape. Marching band members in blue and white uniforms and shiny silver hats play saxophones, smiling and having a good time.
