About Buffalo Wild Wings
Jim Disbrow founded Buffalo Wild Wings Grill and Bar with Scott Lowery in 1982
with just that spirit of friendliness and service in mind. It’s something of a
legend with Buffalo Wild Wings, the way this company started. The way they tell
it, one night in Columbus, Ohio Jim and Scott got hungry for chicken wings. Not
just any old chicken wings, mind you, but the kind they first tried up in
Buffalo, NY – they were looking for chicken wings spun in a hot barbecue sauce
and served up with a side of blue cheese salad dressing and celery. Well, lucky
for millions of people across the country, Jim and Scott never found those
wings. Instead, they opened up their own restaurant on the campus of Ohio State
University, called it Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck, and began serving thousands
of chicken wings a week, spun in their own recipe of hot barbecue sauce that
people in Columbus came to crave. Customers in Columbus liked
the wings, the tasty sandwiches with the unique bun and liked the casual,
friendly atmosphere – that they gave the place the nickname bw-3.
Jim and Scott (and a seasoned team of restaurant executives that came aboard
beginning in 1996) continued to expand their menu, to what are now 12
proprietary sauces from mild Teriyaki to the trademarked Better-Be-Ready Blazin’™.
Over the course of the next 20 years, bw-3 changed its name to Buffalo Wild
Wings Grill & Bar and opened 164 locations in 26 states, including New York,
Minnesota, Texas, Florida, and Las Vegas, Nevada.
