Pro tip …. Eat the skin it’s the best part you’re doing it all wrong lol

I eat it, my mom doesn't.

No the buckets are on sale
Fridays. I don’t know what catchy name it has but there is a line lol like I said this is a bucket of like 30 or so bone in cut wings.

(Unless they recently changed it) I used to get it with my dad on fridays but since he got sick this summer things have been…. Different. Apparently chemo and chicken wings do not go together. Or chemo and anything.

Oh, OK. Maybe they do have a bucket o wings special. We don't do their wings unless they are in the 8-piece meal. There is one guy that works there who, when I ask how much a two extra wings would cost, throws a couple in. The rest of them, notsomuch.

That's rough about your dad. I hope things get better for him.

Wagners Village Inn in Oldenburg, IN is my recommendation. Pan fried chicken. If your ever in that area on the way to Cincinnati, I'd stop in.

Used to try KFC while working. The worse one is on 169th in Hammond. Every one of us refused to ever go back to it. Griffith isn't much better. The only decent one I tried was on Ridge Rd in Munster.
Popeye's on Cline just north of Ridge is always crowded but I have not tried it.
Long John Silver's on Ridge in Munster is excellent.

That is the absolute worst Popeye's ln the universe. They were just bad before covid, but have been understaffed for years now. They wait on one person at a time. 5 minutes later they take the next order.

Calumet City on Sibley ans State Line is good.

Scherrerville on 30 is the best. They always give an extra tender or two. Especially if some ate small. I once got 8 in an order of 5.

I get pissed at Strack's sometimes but they do have the best carry out chicken.

it used to be OK, but lately not so good.

I think that depends on the store. Hobart used to be the best, not sure now. Crown Point is usually pretty good.

CPT Popeyes is spot on.

But when we do chicken at work it's either jewel or stracks. Both of which need to come up with a new solution for deli counter cause it's a mad house around lunch... They need an app with ordering and pick up and payment...

Nothing makes me feel more boomer than picking a number...

Make the chicken an app only thing...

Order on app.

Walk into store at the time it's packaged. Scan a qr to pay. Then walk out.

While the app is a good idea unsure they are willing to invest in all that yet vs the amount of chicken they sell.

Plus new tech is scary and the old timers (in control) have no desire to change.

Why am I thinking of a grease screen? Oh, because when I went into homes as a gas man and seen the stove burners being a pond of grease and entire top of the stove having a very thick coating. Sometimes filled with stuck on bugs. The walls all coated. Moving the stove to work on a flex line could be totally disgusting. Not kidding. I was keeping hand sanitizer before it was cool.

They have to retool eventually. The boomers are going away we can't keep catering to their caveman ways.

Game changer..

Krispy krunchy chicken at the gas station down the road is by far the areas best fried chicken. Absolute best.

Jewel is so poorly run. At least 3-4 times I have seen this scenario. #75 wants 8 pc fried, but no fried right now. Wait over there. Same for #76, 77, 78, etc. Chicken is finally done. Someone yells "who wants fried?". #85, 92, 97, and 101 run and grab the fried that 75-78 were waiting for. Also, twice I have seen Jewel personnel drop a piece of fried chicken on the floor, and instead of throwing it in the trash right there, they carry it to some area out of line of sight, which may or may not be the fryer.

A little extra bacteria on your chicken is good for you. Makes u strong like bull. Lol

Any recommendations for a stadium seat cushion or chair?

You may find a cushion for hunting at Cabela's. Hunters sometimes use them to sit on the ground. They also have small
folding backpack chairs.
