American Hot Buffalo Wing Eating Competition
Celebrate Independence Day by eating yourself to death.
Overview
Sydney's continued obsession with American-style fast food will hit coronary-inducing levels this Independence Day weekend. To celebrate the U.S. national holiday, Keg & Brew, Dove & Olive, and The DOG Hotel will each be hosting a wing eating contest, in which competitors race to scarf down 1.5kg of chicken in the fastest possible time. Hard to think of anything more fitting, really. After all, what's more American than eating yourself to death?
Entry into the contest costs $20, for which you'll receive a bucket of spicy buffalo chicken wings, along with a pint of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale to wash them down. The spectacle kicks off at 12pm on Saturday July 2 at Keg & Brew, 3pm on Saturday July 2 at The DOG, and 2pm on Sunday July 3 at Dove & Olive. The winner at each venue will earn a $50 bar tab.
Assuming you opt not to participate (probably a good decision to be honest), you can still order from the venues' special red, white and blue menu, featuring such American treats as baby back pork ribs and fried shrimp po boy sandwiches.
