Josh Allen Selfie Lands Spot In Buffalo Art Gallery

The day has come where selfies are now landing spots in art museums. The Albright-Knox Art Gallery, although closed while undergoing an expansion, has added to its exhibits a screenshot of a selfie taken by Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen as the Bills returned home Monday morning after clinching a playoff spot. Bills Mafia was in full force at Buffalo-Niagara International Airport to welcome home their favorite team.

The photo happened when two fans, Zach Kmitch and Ali Abbas sought a better angle as Abbas climbed atop the 6-foot-6 Kmitch. This caught Allen’s attention who grabbed the phone and shot the selfie.

After the Twitter post got more than 2,000 likes, the gallery was tagged and proved to fans that it did in fact frame the photo.

Head coach Sean McDermott said, “Where else does that happen? 2 a.m., 30-some degrees or maybe high 20s, on basically a work day, on the heels of a work day. It’s just awesome. Again, I think it’s unique to the Buffalo area and to our fan base, it’s very much appreciated.”

Kmitch wrote, “Bills mafia, it’s really a family. I only knew of three of the people there, but you just felt like you knew everyone around you…In that moment, the players and coaches on that charter were our heroes and were able to life a city up on a pedestal we haven’t seen in 20 years.”
