7 Football Food Fun Facts About Chicken Wings

Every current list that we came across listed the #1 football food to eat during Superbowl 50 as chicken wings.  Wobbly Boots Roadhouse's award-winning wings will be at the top of your "favorite wings" list once you try them.  The best restaurant in Des Moines knows exactly how to prepare them so they are tender, juicy, and mouth-watering.  While we're on the subject of wings, let's start out by telling you a few fun facts about this football-watching food favorite. 
  

1. The Superbowl turns 50 this year, but the wing has been around longer.  This March marks 52 years since they were first served in Buffalo, New York.

2. Chicken wings gained popularity as a football food after the Buffalo Bills played in four Superbowls in a row. 

3. On Superbowl Sunday, Americans generally eat about 1.25 billion chicken wings across the country.  

4. The average person can eat a dozen wings in one sitting.

5. The world record for most wings eaten was set in January 2015 at Philadelphia's Wing Bowl 23.  Patrick Bertoletti ate 444 chicken wings in 26 minutes, followed very closely by Molly Schuyler who ate 440 chicken wings.  

6. In the long-time debate over ranch vs. bleu cheese dressing for chicken wing dipping, ranch usually wins with the most votes.  

7. Frank's Red Hot sauce is said to have been used on the first chicken wings. We have our own secret recipe Chipotle Buffalo sauce at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse, plus three other delicious choices.
