Dear Mr. Sturdevant,

We were glad to see you’d mentioned Buffalo Wild Wings on your blog today. We’re very proud of our Highlands / Bardstown Road location in Louisville, and I was a little disappointed to see you dismiss us so quickly (and particularly without trying any of our signature dishes or enjoying a beer). It’s true, B-Dubs is not the same thing as an all-ages punk rock venue, but it IS a fun, edgy, high-energy and easygoing restaurant — much like the personalities of our guests. Andy, I don’t believe there is so much distance between the venue you once rocked out at, and the relaxed, comfortable atmosphere where people hang out with their friends, play trivia on our Buzztime Trivia System, and watch their favorite games on one of our many big-screen TVs. I think, in a small way, we’re making a difference in people’s lives, and giving them an outlet for fun and camaraderie, as I am sure you were trying to do in the very same space a decade ago with your music.

I’d invite you to come back to our Highlands location next time you’re in Louisville and give us a fair try. Print out this email and we’ll treat you to 6 hand-spun wings with the sauce of your choice, totally on the house. I’ll try to see if we can get some Richard Hell on the jukebox, but I can’t make any promises there (and anyway, I am more of a Wayne County and the Electric Chairs sort of guy myself).

Regards,
