  1. World's Largest Disco

    The World s Largest Disco is an annual event held at the Buffalo Convention Center in Buffalo, New York each year the Saturday after Thanksgiving United States Thanksgiving . The event, widely popular in the area, is a tribute to the disco era and features live performances by 1970s era musicians, along with dancers dressed in 1970s attire. The current event began as an annual occurrence in 1994, but it traces its history and name to a disco held in Buffalo in 1979, featuring The Trammps and Gloria Gaynor . That disco is marked in Guinness World Records as the largest disco in the history, with 13,000 people in attendance. The current incarnation of the event draws 7,000, though this is only because of capacity issues. Tickets for the event regularly sell out within minutes of being put on sale. The event is a charity fundraiser held by Conesus Fest for Charity to raise funds for Camp Good Days and Special Times , a summer camp for children with cancer. The popularity of the event has led to imitators for instance, Palm Springs, California in 2009 launched an unrelated http www.ez103.com World s Largest Disco in the Desert 5449983 Disco in the Desert , which originally had the title WORLD S LARGEST DISCO sub in the Desert sub , which had to be shortened to avoid giving the appearance of the two events being affiliated. The Southern California event is, like its Buffalo counterpart, held on the Saturday evening after Thanksgiving.

It was built in 1959 by local businessman Harold Newman. It can be seen from Interstate 94 , overlooking the city from above the James River Dakotas James River valley. The statue is a significant tourist draw for Jamestown and the source of its nickname, The Buffalo City . It is 26 feet 7.9 m tall, 46 feet 14 m long and weighs 60 tons. It was constructed with stucco and cement around a steel beam frame shaped with wire mesh. The final cost of construction was approximately 8500 in 1969 a significant overrun from initial estimates closer to 4600. The concrete slab that lies under the sculpture was added later and was not included in the initial cost. The sculpture is complete in many respects of detail.

In June 2007, the city of Jamestown received a grant of 16,500 from Hampton Hotels http www.hamptonlandmarks.com Save A Landmark program to refurbish the buffalo.
