Buffalo Wild Wings sues KFC! St. Paul Pioneer Press | 06/18/2005 | Buffalo Wild Wings Inc. comes out Blazin' in suit

In a move to preserve the sanctity of it's Blazin' wing sauce offering, Buffalo Wild Wings has filed a federal suit against long-time chicken provider, KFC. Good for BW3 says this analyst, don't let the big boys take away from a good thing that you've got going!

On a side note, I read somewhere that KFC (once known as Kentucky Fried Chicken) is actually going back to referring to themselves as Kentucky Fried Chicken. They went to KFC a few years ago to downplay the unhealthy "fried" component of their identity. Now, on the growing success of competitor Popeyes, it appears they are going back to the retro Kentucky Fried Chicken name to promote the down-home, feel-good appeal. I dig it, long live fried chicken!!!

Peace, love, and grease!
