ulldog BWW LLC’s Starkville,
Mississippi, location is nestled in a
street so close to the Mississippi State
University (MSU) campus that patrons
can see the football stadium in the
distance while tearing into signature
BWW wings. In fact, the company’s very
name is in honor of the MSU bulldog
mascot. So, when a marketing representative from the university’s athletic
department contacted the store about
hosting a watch party for the Women’s
World Cup finals, they readily said
yes to the opportunity for the MSU
women’s soccer team and coaches to
serve as the official hosts of the party.

are such a large part of our Buffalo
Wild Wings® in Starkville. We are
so appreciative of their support. We
were very excited to host Mississippi
