College students are always looking for a good place to eat that is not going to cost a ton. At Buffalo Wild Wings, if you go on the right night, you can eat a meal for as cheap as five dollars. Not only that, you can watch any sporting event you want on their many televisions. They even have free wireless internet. Not surprisingly, this has quickly become one of my favorite hangouts. They have great food, a lot of space, and whether you’re going to watch your favorite team, or are just with a group of friends catching up, this is a great place to do it.

Their specialty, of course, is wings. They have regular wings and boneless wings and great wing specials. On Thursdays, they have $.60 boneless wings and Tuesdays $.40 regular wings. So you can go and eat a good filling meal for just a little bit of money on these nights. Buffalo Wild Wings offers 14 different sauces to choose from starting with sweet to super hot. Personally, I can’t handle the hot stuff, but I like the “Parmesan Garlic”, and the “Teriyaki.” “Honey Barbecue” is a very popular one as well. If you’re tough enough, you can try the hot end with “Caribbean Jerk,” “Mango Habanero,” or “Blazin.” No matter what combination you get, you’ll get a great deal on these special nights.

They have other great things at Buffalo Wild Wings as well. They have burgers, sandwiches, chicken strips, and even wraps. They have fries, potato wedges, and buffalo chips, which are round little fried potatoes that look like chips. They also have some great appetizers like mini corn dogs, cheeseburger dippers, and of course mozzarella sticks. I recommend the fried or grilled chicken wraps with any one of the sauces.

Not only is the food great here, but it’s got a good atmosphere. There are a lot of tables and space for you to bring a large group. Tons of sports fans go in and watch the games and you can really get into it with fellow fans.
You could even do homework here, if you wanted, with their free wireless internet. If you have not been yet, you should give Buffalo Wild Wings a try.
You will quickly see why it’s one of my favorite hangouts.
