Number of NFL stadums = 32
Average capacity = 70,000
Total capacity = 2,240,000
Putting 572 chicken wings in each of those seats will total out to 1,281,280,000 chicken wings. So yes, they appear to be in the ballpark with the 1.25 billion wings.
Quite a job for the clean-up crews however.
I LOVE chicken wings. Just made them last night and will probably make more today.
I do a Franks/margarine/minced onion, habanero, garlic/honey sauce w/ homemade blue cheese dressing.
Can’t get enough.
So that’s 625,000,000 chickens??
....and that's just Micheal Moore.

Might be a good time to sell chickens short.
Until some genius invented buffalo wings, wings were considered scrap or junk cuts.

The ‘genius’ was a she. She and her husband own the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY. Her son showed up from college with some friends late one night looking for something to eat. She was getting ready to boil up a bunch of chicken wings to make chicken stock. Instead she fried up the wings with hot sauce and serve them up.
Thus a legend was born.
Tri-tip cut bite-sized, wings, potato skins, all from the barbie.
I am making PORK LOIN instead!

Next thing you know, they’ll have Goal Post chicken. That’s the part that would go over the goal post last if you kicked a chicken for a goal.
Just avoid “Chicken-O’s”. You know, the part in the back where eggs and stuff come from.
What bothers me is that these fast food restaurants cut a chicken wing in half and count it as two pieces!!!
Thank god for Franks Red Hot Sauce!!
Oh the chicanery!
750 million chickens must die as penance for Tom Brady’s footballs.
None will be eaten by me. I stick to breast meat removed from the bone. Seems to be another of my weird OCD things I have picked up over the years. I don’t like my poultry to still be on the bone. Yet I have no problem with beef or pork.
From watching other people eat wings I have come to the conclusion they are just a vehicle for sauce and dips anyways since not much meat on most of the wings I have seen.
Put ‘em to work checking Zer0’s budget numbers.
Close. Very close.
Back in the 1960s many times the chicken wings were thrown away. It was not until the 1980s that Buffalo Wings were that popular outside of western NY. Even up until the 1990s the wing was still the cheapest per pound part of the chicken. Now, especially this time of year it is the most expensive chicken part per pound.
If your ever in Buffalo, make sure you stop by the Anchor Bar, listen to some jazz, eat some of their wings and wash it down with a Labatts.
Did that once way back around 1980. Business took me to upstate NY on occasion, Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo and a few points in between; so on one trip to Buffalo I made a point of stopping by the Anchor Bar for chicken wings ... not bad.
