The Buffalo Bisons were an American Football team, based in Buffalo, NY, that played in the All-America Football Conference from 1946 to 1949. Unlike the Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers, and Baltimore Colts, the franchise was not one of the three AAFC teams that merged with the National Football League prior to the 1950 season. Buffalo would have to wait until 1959 to again have a pro team, when Ralph Wilson acquired an American Football League franchise for Buffalo, which he also named the Bills, presumably after the AAFC team. The Buffalo Bills are still in operation as an NFL team to this day. During their existence, the Bills played at War Memorial Stadium from 1946 to 1949.
