Labor Day Wing Tour by the Numbers
Here are a few random numbers from this past weekend to astonish, amaze, and disturb you:
- 500,000 = the estimated number of wings that were consumed over the weekend (the weight was 25 tons)
- 20 = the number of industrial deep fryers that cooked the 500,000 wings
- 27,000 = the estimated number of wings that the deep fryers could put out every hour
- 74,000 = the number of people that attended the festival on Saturday and Sunday
- 450 = the number of company owned and franchise Buffalo Wild Wing restaurants in existence (the co-founders of the restaurant were inducted into the National Buffalo Wing Hall of Flame on Friday night)
- 120 = the estimated number of wings that I consumed on Friday and Saturday
173 = the estimated number of wings that Sonya Thomas consumed in 12 minutes (which was a new world record)
1,500 = the estimated number of wings that Ben "The Mighty Thor" Beavers consumed during the 15 day wing hunt from Manhattan to Buffalo
850 = the estimated number of wings that the average wing hunter consumed

nice going - you must have been eating wings steadily from dawn until dusk on both days - respect. I just ate 18 that I cooked on my barbeque - was going to eat 20 but thought I should save 2 for my girlfriend when she comes home. Romance is important.
