Record Turnout, Not Close to Record Numbers
17 people turned out for the weekly tradition, but only 160 wings were eaten. Of that 160, 20 were BBQ wings. I didn't have a single one, but I dipped my finger into the sauce and it was mighty sweet. The only problem with 17 was that I only told the hostess that 8 people were coming. Whoops! Hopefully there will be a better head count next time. People, people, e-mail, phone, IM...I'm always available.
Jake, who has quickly become the photographer for wing night. Unfortunately, he'll be out of town for quite a while due to his wedding.
And the blue and yellow - not a tribute to Michigan's maize and blue. Over the weekend, I will be reading Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer, which has nothing to do with Michigan (but does have yellow in the title). I also had a nice talk with Warren St. John, the author.

provided it's not raining, we sit outside. so only once did we sit inside. i think that was the first official night of wings.
last night, we sat under the covered outside area though for the first time.

That was super fun, but I was still hungry afterwards. We could have broken the wings record yet!

No -- karaoke was at Sing Sing, on Ave A around 5th St.

That's only 9.4 wings/person. Unacceptable. If the same number of people show up next week we'll only have to bump that up to 12/person to break the record.
