Some bars still have 25¢ wings? Damn. In college like 30 years ago, 25¢ wings and $5 pitchers were the best.

It's been a couple years and this was out in Denver but they do still exist! Memory is fuzzy so it may have been $0.50 but wings, pitchers, and karaoke make for a solid night indeed

I lived next to Romas in New Britain in college and I probably ate $1000 worth of 25 cent wings over the years. Good times.

Yea it’s like $1-2 per wing at most places now but you can still buy wings at the store for cheap. No real reason to eat them out if you know how to cook.

it's the experience of going to a local bar, having a selection of sauces and cheap beer, not having to own a deep fryer to get the type of wings I'm looking for, etc. Everything is cheaper if you cook at home..

Ah yes… sitting in a dimly lit room with loud music, sports on TVs that I don’t care about, surrounded by drunk strangers, eating possibly food safety contaminated wings that got fried in a frier that probably hasn’t had its oil changed in weeks and cheap( probably paying $4 for a bud light) beer…. Man that sounds so much better than popping wings in an air fryer, sitting on my comfortable furniture m, watching a show that I want… what the fuck was I thinking.

So this post was specifically asking for something and you want to come in here and be a homebody and shit on my specific question? Aite man, you do you, I'm gonna go enjoy myself.

Oh and side note - I just checked my grocery store prices for wings (store brand, bulk) and the pub I used to go to is still running their special of $0.60 per wing. That's the same price as the bag of lower quality grocery store wings, already prepared and served to me, in the specific environment I want to be in, but please continue to tell me how much more fun I'd have doing the exact opposite of the thing I asked for information about.

Holy shit you are a miserable person. This has to be a joke account right? Like you can't really be this miserable of a person in real life right?

Jesus Christ dude, you need to get off the internet and consider therapy or maybe just leaving your house once in a while and actually interacting with other human beings. "Have fun drinking and driving" - so you've clearly never heard of the concept of a DD, I see. Maybe if you had friends to go do things with, you'd have considered that option. Maybe you also wouldn't be so fucking miserable to the point where you go on people's reddit threads and actively neg the person while acting holier-than-thou the entire time.

In case anyone is wondering about the removed comment that made multiple people go "Christ, what an asshole"

I’ve got plenty of friends, they’re not pathetic bar scum who blow their paychecks slamming down bud light and chicken wings. We have a little more sophisticated interests and actually have standards of who we associate ourselves with.

Chicken is bad for you and when you eat it you “like yourself slowly”
