After 19 years of serving the Auburn Community, we will be closing our doors this Saturday, May 25th for good. It has been an honor to be part of the Auburn family all of these years. Starting today we will be having some crazy throw back deals and specials. All food items must go! Come get your wing on one last time this weekend at the "Home of the World's Best Wings" while supplies last! If you have a favorite, come early or you may miss out. Thanks again to everyone that has passed through our doors, it has been a wonderful experience and we could not have made it happen without you! WAR EAGLE!!

Bad news for the second rate wing makers out there, if they can't even make it....

I gotta be honest. I never really ate there that much. Didn't think it was that good.

This.

Things are only great (and it's a tragedy to shut them down) when they close...when they're open no one gives a shite.

I could have never been told this and i probably never would have noticed.

Same... Went to TßN Wing Night the two years I've been in college, but I've never been other than that.

Good food, but not worth the price.

I remember when they opened it. We went a couple of times, but that's it. It was a pretty good ways off campus when I was there.

I went a couple of times, but there are places with better deals on wings and alcohol. There never seemed to be many people there.

I lived in College Park 1 right there behind it when I was at school so we went there for their pitcher specials and would get some buffalo tenders while there drinking heavily. I will miss the place and the good memories but I haven't eaten there in 10 years.

When I started undergrad at AU I too was living at college park and at that time BuffCon was always packed. But as I went through school after undergrad the other wing places really started coming in and kicking it up. I don't know if BuffConn's quality went down or I just got older and recognized better options? Probably both.
