POWER OF ATTORNEY
       I, Alexander Hopper Ware, hereby authorize and designate each of Emily
Decker, Steven Kennedy, John Haveman, Joshua Colburn and Amra Hoso signing
singly, as my true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:
              (1)	prepare and execute for and on my behalf, in my capacity as
an officer and/or director of Buffalo Wild Wings, Inc. (the "Company"), Forms
3, 4 and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the "Exchange Act") and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder
and other forms or reports on my behalf as may be required to be filed in
connection with my ownership, acquisition, or disposition of securities of the
Company, including Form 144;
              (2)	do and perform any and all acts for and on my behalf that may
be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4 or 5 or
Form 144, and any amendments to any of the foregoing, and timely file any such
form with the Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or
similar authority; and
              (3)	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection
with the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be to my
benefit, in my best interest, or legally required of me, it being understood
that the statements executed by such attorney-in-fact on my behalf pursuant to
this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-fact's
discretion.
       I hereby further grant to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite,
necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and powers
herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as I might or could do if
personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby
ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such
attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be
done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted.  I hereby acknowledge that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving
in such capacity at my request, are not assuming, nor is the Company assuming,
any of my responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act or
Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
       This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until I am
no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 or Form 144 with respect to my
holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless
earlier revoked by me in a signed writing delivered to the foregoing
attorneys-in-fact.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such attorney-in-fact
hereafter ceases to be an employee of the Company, this Power of Attorney shall
be automatically revoked solely as to such individual, immediately upon such
cessation, without any further action on my part.
       I hereby revoke all previous Powers of Attorney that have been granted
by me in connection with my reporting obligations, if any, under Section 16 of
the Exchange Act and Rule 144 under the Securities Act with respect to my
holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company.
       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have caused this Power of Attorney to be duly
executed as of this 9th day of November, 2016.
