CAPS member XMFSamstevens elaborates on the B-Wild bull case:

I love these growth stocks that look overvalued. This one sort of reminds me of upscale fast food joints [Panera Bread] and [Chipotle Mexican Grill], which develop a near cult-like following. Buffalo Wild Wings has been growing really fast and I hope they can keep it up. I've been trying to look for my favorite businesses recently and trying to ignore current price. ... [B]ased on having eaten there and looking at the chart/financials, I'll go ahead and green thumb this one.
