The Wingstop by my place is run entirely by feral youth, but that means a 10pc boneless regularly has between 11-13pc. It's so frequent, it's to the point where if you order 10 and you actually get 10, you feel like you got shorted

Are Wingstop fries usually The poo poo? I only eat wings with places that serve beer, so I’ve never been there.

Wholesale wing prices are the lowest since 2018 though!

MOM is surely nearby.
They have a well done option for the fries that you can request, highly recommended

Honestly though does it really matter, since the fries are just a conveyance to shove more of their transcendental ranch into your hungry maw?

If your state still has a pandemic state of emergency, or gets a hurricane, be sure to report places charging $2 a wing for price gouging in an emergency

I don't think I'll ever have that because Wingstop is for a long night of TV watching. I'm not going to wait 20-40 minutes for them to make one sandwich and a basket of fries during my lunch break.

I really enjoy their original hot, which is their version of buffalo. It's exactly as hot as I want in a wing, and has some good tang. I'm not a Hot Ones fanatic, so it's probably mild to anyone else. I think I've tried all their others and didn't care for any of them. The wings themselves have always been cooked well and quite large. No real complaints and I'm pretty happy I have a go to wing place.

I must be lucky enough to live near a Good Wingstop. It's better than some local places worse than others; their fries were good once upon a time but were another place hit hard by the transfat ban. But, they are way better than Buffalo Wild Wings at the very least. Also they are open until midnight whereas most other wing places here stop taking orders at like 9:30.

Do you like the juicier parts of chicken? Do you like sauces? If cooked right these smaller juicy chicken parts give you a good sauce to chicken ratio as opposed to say just pouring sauce on a full chicken breast, even the big wings. Many people also like finger foods, but YMMMV there.

I'm not saying you have to like wings (and I have no opinion about this specific place), to each their own, but I guess I'm not sure what's "not to get"? I don't mean that in a bad way, the appeal seems obvious, and I couldn't come up with much against beyond them being messy.

Yeah wing prices are out of loving control, 15 wings near my work - suburban Delaware - run $25+ with one sauce. if you want to try more than one you have to order a 10 and 5 which is more expensive

imma ask here because

Wings over <city> just opened here. I have a $10 gift card. It looks like a national chain.

A dozen wings are over $20. I don't know what the actual gently caress, but... What the gently caress? Wingstop it's 15 wings for 15 bux.

How should I set my expectations before using this $10 card to get what should be $10 worth of wings.

That chain went from 4 locations to the last one closing last week. They weren’t bad. Very mid as the kids say.
