Buffalo is also the only team to ever win four consecutive American Football Conference Championships, the only team in either conference to play in four consecutive Super Bowl games, and the only team to lose four consecutive Super Bowls.
The Bills were named as the result of the winning entry in a local contest, which named the team after the AAFC Buffalo Bills, a previous football franchise from the All-America Football Conference that merged with the Cleveland Browns in 1950. That team was named after the historic Buffalo Bill. The Bills’ cheerleaders are known as the Buffalo Jills. The official mascot is Billy Buffalo; Cody is not used in the team’s iconography at all.
The Bills are the only NFL team to play their home games within New York state. Both the New York Jets and the New York Giants play in East Rutherford, New Jersey, nine miles from New York City. With the inception of the five-year Bills Toronto Series deal in 2008 that is good through 2012, they are the only NFL team to play a home game in Canada. The Bills conduct summer training camp at St. John Fisher College in Pittsford, a suburb of Rochester, NY.
