Wingstop will face off against Wings to Go, a small chain that was founded in Delaware that  has more than 30 locations as far west as Texas.

Neither chain should be confused with Buffalo Wild Wings, which offers a sports bar concept featuring wings with various sauces and rubs.  

BWW, which has a combination of company-owned stores and franchises, was acquired by fast-food chain Arby’s after struggling with sagging sales at some of its stores and for a time high wing prices.
