I thought of this, this morning listening to the song on the way into work...
Buffett after the Lulu gets up with a beer in her hand part Lulu Says..."To Ronnie and the Boys"
Does anyone know who this is referring too?

I'm assuming it refers to Lynyrd Skynyrd... Ronnie Van Zant and "the boys"...

The verse goes:
"Second set, the owner Lulu gets up with the band, a beer in her hand, and sings Free Bird slow, then she raises a toast - "here's to Ronny and the boys - now everybody make some noise" "

Yes, that would be correct. And the original lyrics have "the owner" singing
a different Skynyrd song, (The Ballad of) Curtis Lowe, instead of Freebird.

I thought it was for Ronnie Woo-Woo the mentally challenged Cub fan who has been tormenting the bleachers for 30 years

Absopositively.
Definitely a toast to the memory of Ronnie Van Zandt.
