Super Bowl Party

February 5th, 2011

People across the country are preparing for one of the most popular parties of the year, the Super Bowl party. If you are throwing a Super Bowl party in East Texas this weekend, you really only need two things, good food, and a big screen television.

I highly doubt people are looking to buy a brand new television just a few days before the Super Bowl, but if you are looking to get a new television set there are a lot of places that are having big sales. When it comes to technology it seems that if you wait a year after the product comes out there will be something new and you can save a huge percentage of the cost of the original product you wanted.

Most television companies are starting to move their technology towards doing more 3D television and extremely thin televisions. If you walk through Wal-Mart stores you will see flat screen televisions for a third less than they were last year. Wal-Mart has great prices on their televisions but the employees that work there do not really know what the best deal is. If you want a great staff to recommend the best television for the big game I recommend that you go to Don’s TV & Appliances or to Best Buy.

Now that you have your television ready, is it time to start with the food. This is one of the times of the year that junk food is expected. The most popular foods at a Super Bowl party are the barbeque chicken wings, chips and cheese dip, and fruit and vegetable trays. If you have no desire to cook for your party, there are great places that will provide your party with the necessary food. Aaron Rodgers Superbowl 45

Most places will do catering, but the most popular restaurant during Super Bowl has to be Wing Stop. It is amazing how many wings are sold on Super Bowl Sunday. But who does not love Wing Stop? They have the best flavors no matter what flavor you prefer. I am not a big fan of spicy flavors, because I get the worse heart burn, so I love the Hawaiian wings and the lemon-pepper wings. Wing Stop has great flavors that come as regular chicken wings, boneless Wings, and chicken strips.

If you are up for the challenge of cooking for the hungry crowd, you probably have been into the grocery stores and seen the many displays of junk food advertising the Super Bowl. But instead of just throwing a few barbeque wings on the grill, why not do a Super Bowl theme? I know it shows you as being cheesy but really when it comes to food how can you go wrong?

In this year’s Super Bowl the Green Bay Packers will be battling against the Pittsburgh Steelers. If you have seen one Green Bay game, you know the food that they are known for, cheese! Wisconsin likes to be known for their cheese, so why not do a bunch of trays of Wisconsin Cheese? Trying to figure out what to do for the Steelers was tricky until I found out that Pennsylvania is know to be the snack capital of the world.

It was the first place to introduce pretzels to the United States. The state of Pennsylvania is known for the Hershey Company and many more chocolate companies. Have fun with different cheeses, chocolates, and many other snack foods as you watch these teams fight to be the 2011 Super Bowl winners.

Buffalo Wild Wings in Tyler Texas

July 2nd, 2010

Being married to a dedicated sports fan, having young toddlers, and being a dedicated fan of pretty much any popular reality show, the arguing of what show to watch gets pretty ridiculous, and the DVR quickly fills up with shows you forget to delete.

But in my journey for answers for our issue, I came to realize that I am not the only person with this problem. Men are always forced to watch our movies and television shows. Women are annoyed at their husbands yelling at the television set and trying to chest bump the kids.

Why not send your husband somewhere that he can watch the game with other chest bumping crazed men?

At Buffalo Wild Wings the restaurant is covered wall to wall with giant television screens. I felt sorry for the company when Tyler started the smoking ban. The restaurant had a great idea for the issues of second hand smoke, two separate rooms.

People that smoke don’t have their rights taken away and people that do not smoke do not have to breathe it. But I will digress from declaring my personal opinions of human rights.

They have a great bar in the separated room. The two rooms are separated by a glass wall. The bar is great to hang out with your friends and they even have a couple arcade games.

But besides the drinks and full bar, video games, and large televisions, Buffalo Wild Wings has pretty good food. It definitely is not the best buffalo wings in town (if you are looking for the best wings in town, in my opinion, Wing Stop tops them all); but no matter they still are very satisfying and there is a great selection of sauces and meats. Have your own choice of boneless, or mild or honey barbeque.

If you are planning to go to Buffalo Wild Wings on a day that there is a big game, I recommend that you get there early because that small building gets full really fast. Also sit by the door because if you are trying to leave during the game you may have to climb over people, or at least feel like you are climbing over people.

I never have had an issue or a compliment about the service at the Tyler Buffalo Wild Wings, but I have had the worse service that I have ever had at any restaurant in my life, at the restaurant in Longview, about a year ago. Since my family and I had to endure that horrible service we are yet to return to the Longview restaurant.

I really recommend Buffalo Wild Wings in Tyler to meet up with friends and get a drink. But do not expect the best wings in the world there, but expect to make memories with your friends, and have a great time.

Wing Stop on the West Loop

June 20th, 2010

Wing Stop has become the place we pick up quick delicious food for family get togethers and events.

Let’s face it sometimes you’re too lazy to even throw a hot dog or chicken wing on the grill.

Let Wing Stop do some deep frying for you instead.

I like their hawian, lemon pepper, mild, and garlic parmesian flavored wings.

The vegi sticks help justify the bindge as you dunk them into ranch dip.

Their French fries are some of the best in town.

Eat here in their store or take it to go. They are good with in store and take out.

They have no trash cabs in the store and you end up using a lot of towels to clean your face and hands.

Simply throw the wadded towels on the floor and concentrate on eating these delicious wings.

There are two Wing Stop locations in Tyler, one by Albertsons on the loop and one on the West loop near hwy 64 and Wal Mart in Tyler.

Buffalo Wild Wings

December 30th, 2009

When it comes to sports bars in the tyler area, my list starts and ends with Buffalo Wild Wings. In a dry county it is becoming increasingly harder to watch a ball game drinking a beer on my couch in my home. Beer runs on a sunday often have me coming in after the first half is already over. So I’ve adopted a new tradition of enjoying football games in the comfort of my local buffalo wild wings.

There is a variety of sauces that make a simple selection of a plate of wings an exciting new choice every trip I make, so I’ve come to enjoy the taste of their reasonably priced wings and throwing back a couple of drinks to the sound of cheers and taunts as everyone watches the cowboys game. Although there will be other games and sports showing on seperate tvs, be prepared for the Cowboys game to take precidence over say the Detroit Lions.

Do not expect to go to Buffalo Wild Wings dressed as your favorite figure skater expecting to watch the figure skating championship I’ve found that not to be a good idea. This is after all a man’s sports club. For those too cheap to pay for cable and wish to still see their favorite game this is the perfect place for it. Buffalo Wild Wings will often charge cover charges for pay per view fights and other events hosted. The food quality is good and I can’t say I’ve ever had a problem with the service, the true problem comes in the fact that it is treated like a restaurant by the employees, so delaying a 45 minute meal into two and a half hours to watch the whole game, becomes a bit of a hassle.

With the amount of beer guzzling that is often associated with football, Buffalo Wild Wings has surprisingly few drunks. If you are just in the mood for wings swing by, you may be charged just to get a table, so take caution to only go when you are certain there’s not a big fight or a bowl game going on. The quality of the wings rival that of their competitors Wing Stop and prices are even as well. Since the prices are low making the transition from your monotaneous life to a crowd that makes you feel like you are at the game can easily become a tradition. So the next time you are in the mood for a plate full of juicy wings and want to take in a relaxing boxing match or ball game, stop by Buffalo Wild Wings.
