Buffalo Wild Wings is looking at getting into sports gambling. The local B-Dubs has always been an attractive choice for sports TV excitement, but someday you may be able to add the possibility of losing money on the Chicago Bears? Well, that is a whole new level of excitement.


quote:

I’m not kidding about Buffalo Wild Wings’ gambling curiosity. The company recently disclosed that it is “actively exploring opportunities” in the gambling space. This, of course, follows the Supreme Court striking down a prohibition on sports betting in states outside Nevada—paving the way for every citizen in every corner of this great country to legally lose money on Clippers games. “As the largest sports bar in America, we believe Buffalo Wild Wings is uniquely positioned to leverage sports gaming to enhance the restaurant experience for our guests,” a B-Dubs rep told me in a statement.

Never been a huge B-Dubs fan, but this is probably one way to boost sales.

THey've got to do something. They might have the worst food of any major chain restaurant.

I love Hooters wings. Hopefully they get into the game, too. Have girls come to your table to run your bets like the old Keno girls in Vegas.

B dubs wings are pretty decent and they have a good beer selection. I don't understand the hate.

I don't see how they can feasibly do this. They will be forced to hold a lot more cash in the stores. I expect they will be getting robbed a lot more.

Their wings are gross compared to pluckers or even hooters. Their sandwiches are borderline inedible. The best thing on their menu is their ribs which are meh at best.

Beer selection and tvs are solid, so I'll give you that.

The asian zing and the desert heat aren't bad. Other than that, it's essentially a fast food restaurant with tvs that sells beer. There was one by my old house and it took me a couple of visits before I adjusted my expectations and was able to enjoy a Sunday of NFL games.

Their wings are average AT BEST and way over priced.

Their beer is way over priced.

And the service is horrendous.

i dont hate the place... but gambling would certainly change the game in there for me. maybe their wings aren't the best, but the flavors/sauces/selections are pretty solid. tvs and environment is pretty solid. i like messing with the buzz time trivia too some times. service has definitely gone down hill. aside from wings and quest I've never had anything else from there, so true enough that other stuff might really suck
