CANTON, Ohio (AP) -All that was missing were the chicken wings, because the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony had a distinct Buffalo flavor.
Bills owner Ralph Wilson opened by loosening up the crowd with a few humorous anecdotes. And the chants of “BRUUUCE!” resounded through Fawcett Stadium on Saturday night, even before former Bills defensive end Bruce Smith had taken the podium.
In between there were emotional moments, when Kansas City linebacker Derrick Thomas and Dallas Cowboys receiver Bob Hayes were inducted posthumously.
Also inducted was defensive back Rod Woodson, who described himself as humbled, once again letting his numbers speak for themselves as during his playing days.
