A Veterans Day Look Back at Freedom Celebration

by | PUBLISHED ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2013

With our nation’s upcoming observation of Veterans Day, the Buffalo Chip would like to take this opportunity to salute the men and women of our military. Their tireless fight to preserve our freedoms has allowed us to enjoy a way of life unrivaled by that of any other country; and for this we thank you.

In 2013, these brave men and women were celebrated with a full day dedication at the Buffalo Chip during the Freedom Celebration. The annual military tribute day included a poignant presentation to the families of fallen Navy SEALs, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. The two showed heroic patriotism and courage in Benghazi, Libya, sacrificing their lives while saving the lives of many others. Members of their family were present on the Buffalo Chip’s main stage to accept the honors on Thursday, Aug. 8.

by | PUBLISHED ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2013

The Buffalo Chip gets a lot of praise from fans, but a few weeks ago we received a compliment that was just too significant to keep to ourselves. After attending the Chip’s summer music festival for several years, superfan, Zach Dodge, penned the lyrics to his very own Buffalo Chip tribute song. He then flew to Arizona from his home in Washington State to lay down the tracks at Blind Dog Studio! With the help of producer, Brandon Goehner, this irresistibly catchy song sprung to life and showed up in our inbox.

We were so flattered by the lengths these two went to express their love for The Chip™ that we gave the song its own music video. So crank up the volume and check out the premiere of the official 2013 Best Party Anywhere music video!
