Best Wings

Buffalo Wild Wings is a sit down restaurant known worldwide due to their different variation of wings.

Buffalo Wild Wings, or BDUBS to some, was created in 1982 by Jim Disbrow and Scott Lowery, who moved from Buffalo, New York to Ohio.The two were craving New York-style wings so it gave them two options — open up a wing shop or take the trip to New York. The duo gave us a wing shop.

The wing shop was first called Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck, where only music videos were played on the television. But after a customer asked for the Ohio State game, there was an increase in the sports-centered environment, similar to the one we see today.

Fun fact: Back in the 90s, the franchise offered 20-cent wings every Tuesday.
