The history of the team dates back to somewhere in the nineteenth century. To be more exact, it was at the tail end of it, in 1879. In the year 1986, the team became member of the original International League and moved into the minor league. The team was originally a major league club that later shifted to a minor league.

Due to poor attendance and the worsening condition of the stadium, in 1970 the team transferred to Winnipeg, Manitoba, as the Winnipeg Whips. The Bisons were bestowed with a new life when the ownership of the team bought the Jersey City Franchise of the Class Double-A Eastern League. The Bisons were then asked to shift to the city. After remaining with the Eastern League for six seasons, the Bisons joined the AAA ranks in 1985. It was during this time span that the team joined the American Association when the Wichita Aeros franchise rights were transferred to Buffalo. After the 1997 season, the American Association folded; hence Buffalo Bisons sought refuge in the International League, whereas its rivals in the American Association joined the Pacific Coast Leagues.

The Buffalos have managed to climb the success ladder with quite an impressive career graph.
