A tweet from the corporate account of Buffalo Wild Wings has outraged the Who Dat Nation and left the chain's local franchise scrambling to mend fences. Note: This story was updated on Tuesday with an apology from Buffalo Wild Wings.

The tweet, written as the New Orleans Saints suffered a catastrophic defeat to the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday that included the injury of quarterback Drew Brees, read: “New Orleans fans already drawing up lawsuits.”

New Orleans fans already drawing up lawsuits. — Buffalo Wild Wings (@BWWings) September 15, 2019

The tweet was inspired by a conspicuous bad call (the reversal of an 80-yard run after a fumble) in favor of the Rams during Sunday’s game.

That game-changing errant call echoed another obvious bad call in the Rams' favor during last year’s NFC Championship game, when a referee’s failure to flag an egregious pass interference prevented the Saints from progressing to the Super Bowl. Saints fans sued the NFL for the bad call in the NFC Championship game, but the Louisiana Supreme Court eventually threw the suit out.

Who Dats had hoped for redemption on Sunday — sweet revenge, even. Instead, they saw their dreams evaporate. The Buffalo Wild Wings "drawing up lawsuits" tweet was like pouring hot sauce in the wound.

To make matters worse, Buffalo Wild Wings mocked Brees in a subsequent post by pairing a photo of the defeated quarterback with an emoji similar to his facial expression.

Walker: Drew Brees' injury and another blown call ... misery for Saints, fans in loss to Rams LOS ANGELES — First, there was the thumb, the injured one on Drew Brees' right hand that very well could determine whether this will be a Supe…

Members of the Who Dat Nation struck back with a mile-long string of stinging comments directed at the international fast food conglomerate, including pledges to boycott the local bar/restaurants.

Twitter commenter Scott Durbin wrote: “Won’t be eating at your establishment again. Don’t you even have a clue about NOLA?”

A commenter calling herself msg wrote: “Will not take my grandsons to Buffalo Wild Wings ever again. Was their favorite place for Gammie to bring them to — every week or two. Not funny. Not smart.”

Yet another Twitter commenter called GrisGrisGurl sarcastically wrote: “Great marketing strategy for a business that has a near New Orleans location. Genius.”

Amit Patel, the owner of all three local Buffalo Wild Wings locations, said he was bewildered by the tweet.

“I’m a nine-year Saints season ticket holder. That tweet in no way reflects our feelings. We are locally owned, we’re part of the Who Dat Nation, we love the Saints,” Patel said.

He and his employees bleed black and gold like everyone else in the region, the owner stressed. On Sunday, he pointed out, his Elmwood, Metairie and Algiers locations were giving out foam hands, emblazoned with the message, “Pass Interference,” for fans to wave during the first Rams rematch since the notorious no-call.

Patel said that he's happy being part of the Buffalo Wild Wings chain. But reading the tweet, he said, was like “When someone in your family says something that doesn’t reflect what you’re all about.”

He has reached out for clarification. Buffalo Wild Wings corporate headquarters are in Viking country — Minneapolis, Minnesota. But the parent company, Inspire Brands, is located in, uh, Atlanta.

Our attempts to contact the BWW parent company corporate offices resulted in a no-call backs until Monday evening when a company spokesperson issued an email mea culpa. “We apologize for our tweet, which was not meant to offend Saints fans," the spokesperson wrote. "We intended to point out another bad call in a fun way. In fact, our Director of Social Media is a die-hard Saints fan who attended the NFC Championship game earlier this year.”
