I have come to really HATE this term at a restaurant... I think they should call it "all you are willing to eat" or "all you WANT to eat" or even "all you SHOULD eat"

By calling it "all you CAN eat" I think that they force me to eat more than what I should..


Give me a break... a plate of starters (fries with bacon bits and cheese) and THEN... 73 chicken wings???? What the hell was I thinking??? And to think... I used to be able to eat even more...


THEN we had to make the obligatory stop at Krispy Kreme...

Geez, I am a wing love as I often eat chicken wings probably 2-3 nights a week at different restaraunts but I get full after 20:hmm:
Even in my younger days a friend and I splitting an order of 50 was good for me....
How big are these wings:confused:

I just saw a sign on the way home tonight for 20 cent wings.... I don't see that as a bargain. Plus I'm not a wing lover.

well James.. they are pretty good sized wings.. not sure exactly how you would classify them.. They are advertised as the best wings in the USA as they have won contests everywhere from maine to florida and as far west as oklahoma...

They have even one flavor where you have to sign a waiver before they will even let you have them.

Oh yeah Jesse, I have had Hooter wings many a time...
I can only get about 10 of those bad boys down as we get them breaded so they fill me up......
Have you ever tried the breaded hot shrimp?? Shrimp covered with the same breading and hot sauce as the wings...YUMMY!!
As for 20 cent wings, that is a GREAT bargain down here as the price of wings are high here.....
A 50 piece is normally anywhere betwen 21.95 and 24.95......Thats an average of .45 to .50 cents.....
Happy hour will get you .25 cent wings at a very few places...
Do they have a Gators up by any of your areas??? I actually just went there for dinner tonight...Best wings I have ever had as they actually GRILL them which is very key..They have a great flavor and they are not all greasy with all that oil and sauce at the bottom of the plate...IE: Hooters which sometimes I have to wring them out with a paper towel..:biggrin:

Hey Jesse, have you ever heard of the Winghouse???
They are specifically down here in Florida and is pretty much a carbon copy of Hooters right down to the wooden floors and girls in tiny outfits but they wear black instead of orange and put Hooter girls to shame, at least the one where I live....
The food is also pretty much the same...
It's owned by Crawford Ker who played college football for the University of Florida Gators. Crawford was a 3rd round draft choice of the Dallas Cowboys in 1985. He spent six years with the Cowboys where he was team captain for 4 of those years and was named to the Cowboys "Team of the 80's". Crawford left the Cowboys and played for the Denver Broncos for 2 seasons.

Oh Cyn, yet another reason to just adore you:love:
I just love a woman that likes buffalo wings and isn't afraid to get a little dirty eating them:biggrin:
If you guys get to come down at all for Spring Training, I'll take you and Nanner to Hooters:biggrin:
I think it was Nanner that was talking about coming down right??

Yes! 'Twas I!!

Mmmmmm..... love wings. Just another thing to add to the list of things to do while down in Florida.

I'm checking out prices already. I'm assuming there'll be some good deals come late Feb/March.

WOOOHOOOO!!!:biggrinpa
