Wing Ding

From today's News & Record...The Palladium at Deep River plans to add another restaurant: Buffalo Wild Wings. The name's kind of generic, but this is a chain found in 34 states, especially prevalent in college towns. There was one in my hometown of Knoxville, Tenn., and I enjoyed the beer specials...just right for a poverty-stricken college boy. There's a giant location in Chapel Hill, for those more familiar with the ACC than the SEC.

The Palladium is the shopping center with the movie theater. A free-standing Ham's Restaurant is opening there soon, which will lead to the closure of the Ham's at the corner of Skeet Club and Eastchester.

An update...Buffalo Wild Wings is scheduled for an October opening. Yesterday, no one at the company was around to give me that information.

About time... a decent sports bar in north High Point. Good news for SEC ex-pats like me. Perhaps the folks that run this joint will actually show non-ACC games on a couple of TVs, and will be smart enough to know that Florida and Auburn aren't in the ACC (unlike the owners of another local bar).

As a dyed-in-the-wool Vol, I can only say I WISH Florida were part of the ACC. Even since Spurrier left, Florida continues to rattle Tennessee. I don't understand why...
