Wing Ding 2013

This year's Wing Ding fund raiser event was hosted on June 1st by Jethro's BBQ and included wings from lots of local restaurants like Goodsons, Sakari, Quintons, Saints, Twin Peaks, Buffalo Wild Wings, Okabokji Grill and more.  The proceeds were to benefit the Animal Rescue League of Iowa and the event was awesome.

A punch card that costs $20 in advance ($25 at the door) got you 12 wings, a 16 oz drink (alcohol included), a coupon for a free sandwich at Jethro's and a fun commemorative bag filled with goodies.  Great deal for a great cause.  

There was live music and a wing eating contest that was hilarious to watch Molly (the professional eater, who had previously eaten one of Jethro's famous humongous sandwiches in 7 minutes) who was able to put away about 3 pounds of chicken in 2 minutes! Pretty impressive.

My favorite wings of the evening were the green chili parmesan from Twin Peaks. So good!  Maytag had samples and Confluence was pouring their "Barley & Me".  Fitting for the occasion.

The rain didn't stop wing-eaters as they just piled under the tents to wait out the downpours.  They did a great job keeping up with demand and keeping the party going.  Can't wait until next year!
