Cliff,
Not sure if you got answers yet about Buffalo Wild Wings, but here in Findlay Ohio the buys are placed locally. There is an owner who has 2 l ocations in the area an he places his own radio buys. He does use radio and it is successful for him. He was on an annual for a while before he got into pay issues. Hope that helps. Kellie

You have hit on a point of frustration. We carry the USC Trojans and the local Trojan fans gather at the BWW just s couple of miles from us. Do they by us? NO. They buy a small wattage FM from so many miles away that has no sports but a 18-34 music format. They are a big sports bar here, but they are targeting a younger, harder drinking crowd.

think it's 22 squared in Atlanta...they use radio...infrequently...mainly for grand openings or special events...but like in-studio tastings and being a part of station events, having relationship with local managers is key ;-) Great location for your station to have any sort of event at - guys like it a lot - lots of tvs and sports - oh - and the wings are great!
