Wings. Beer. Sports. And bets? Buffalo Wild Wings is looking to get into the bookmaking game.
The largest sports bar in America is looking to add sports betting as a revenue stream to its operations. Do you guys think this is a good strategic move for Buffalo Wild Wings?
Although I have only been to Buffalo Wild Wings once, I personally think this is a great move by the company which can help enhance the atmosphere at the restaurant. The firm also noted that alcohol revenues have been down. I think this could create a more rowdy atmosphere that promotes drinking and gambling... a deadly combination.
It's a smart move. With the SCOTUS ruling from May sports gambling is going to be the future, better make money from it from it sooner rather than later.
I completely agree. It's always better to be first in a movement than last, especially when it comes towards business ideas.
I think they should focus on better food first.
They're a sports bar, not a 5-star restaurant! Jokes aside, I honestly don't remember how their food is, but I don't see how one could mess up wings that much.
However, I think they are trying to change their stereotype to be a chill sports lounge (drinking atmosphere with sports betting and TVs like a Vegas sports book).
BWW wings are top fucking notch you philistine. Drench them in ranch and blue cheese and you've got a meal. Go to Europe if you want fine taste and charcuterie.
the food has seemed to change as they have become more popular
definitely. wings are too "bready". Their wings in 2011-2012 ish were top notch
Their wings are microwave-tier, but so is the food of competitors and chain restaurants such as Wingstop, Applebees, TGIF, Chillies, etc.
I can't knock on them when there is a potential niche market that they are strategically readjusting for. Exciting stuff to say the least. From a personal standpoint, I still could never justify blowing $20+ for a medium size basket of wings while watching a game though.
