ready to go. >> All right. So, uh we are here this morning on a very, very exciting day, both for me personally, but also here for the city of Cottage Grove. And we are here to do the official ribbon cutting of Buffalo Wild Wings to Go in Cottage Grove. And this gentleman standing next to me here uh knows that I have been on their case to bring this to Cottage Grove for many many many years. And he even reminded me of that this morning. He said, "Remember when you called me and says we need you in Cottage Grove?" And look, we're here finally. We got we got Buffalo Wild Bings here. So very very excited. For those who are uh wondering where this is located, it's basically right uh behind Huntington Bank uh Kitty Corner from Walgreens uh off of uh East Point Douglas kind of 80th Street area in the strip center kind of by Caribou and such. Uh just trying trying to give you some uh ideas here. And obviously this is not their first location within the Twin Cities, but uh one of many more that I'm sure that they're going to continue to uh to build upon and grow uh with Buffalo Wildlings. personally one of my favorite places to go eat. Got my app on my phone. Uh I got lots of free food from that app. And uh he was even just sharing with me a little bit earlier that the the pricing here is actually even a little bit cheaper than uh the actual sitdown restaurant. So this is an opportunity for you to come and get uh get what you want. Um I did want to briefly uh mention some of the the our our guests that are here today. Uh from our city council uh we have uh Dave Clawson and I saw Mon'nique some >> oh there sorry and uh our also council member Monnique Garza and then helping us hold one of the ribbons is our uh state representative uh Wayne Johnson. Uh so we're very excited to have everybody here to uh celebrate this particular day. Last thing I'll say and then I'm going to kick it over to our uh chamber president uh is there is a very very long line of people here uh because there they did have the deal and I've heard as I was going through the line they said hey we saw your post uh cuz I copied your guys's post or linked it uh for the first 100 visitors uh that come in today when the when they first open get uh wings for a year and so that is pretty awesome.
