CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer may have been happy with the Buffalo Bills result on Sunday but NFL fans weren't as impressed with the way he watched the game. Blitzer, a lifelong Buffalo fan, watched his beloved Bills cruise into the divisional round of the NFL playoffs with a 31-7 Wild-Card win over the Denver Broncos from the comfort of his home Sunday.
And the 76-year-old toasted the Bills' survival by sharing a photo of himself proudly pointing at the final score on his television screen. However, the celebratory snap quickly drew the attention of NFL fans who honed in on one particular detail. While Blitzer has been waiting a long time to witness his Bills lift the Lombardi Trophy, it appears it's been even longer since he bought a new television.
According to his own photo, the reporter owns a very old school home entertainment setup, featuring a plasma screen television, DVD, VHS and CD players, and at least four difference remotes. CNN anchor watched his beloved Buffalo Bills playoff game from the comfort of his home.
The 76-year-old has long been an avid fan of the Bills, who beat the Denver Broncos Sunday. Social media users were quick to roast Blitzer for his 'veteran' setup as many urged him to upgrade his setup to more modern standards. 'Love the two VCR's. Can rewind one while watching another. Veteran move,' one fan posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.
