  Dunn Tire Park Information
The Montreal Expos and Pittsburgh Pirates were often mentioned as a leading contender in the latter category and Buffalo was one of the four finalists in the 1993 National League expansion derby, which brought the Colorado Rockies and Florida Marlins to major-league baseball.
In the first season the Bisons played at the stadium, the team shattered the previous minor-league attendance record, as many Buffalonians and visitors traveled downtown to enjoy the amenities offered by the new facility, which replaced the old War Memorial Stadium as the Bisons' home.
For part of a season, the stadium was known locally simply as "The Downtown Ballpark." In July 1995, however, another company stepped in and acquired the naming rights, and the stadium became known as "North AmeriCare Park." The stadium was to maintain this moniker for only a few years, however.
