The Buffalo Bandits are a lacrosse team based in Buffalo, New York, playing in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). The 2012 season was their 21st season in the NLL.
The Bandits finished last in the East with a 7–9 record, but qualified for the playoffs. Buffalo would go on to lose to the Toronto Rock in the Division Semifinal, 7–6. In a rare moment for an otherwise successful franchise, this was the first season since 1999 where the Bandits finished the season with a losing record.
