I live in Florida and Hooter's has the worst wings on the planet. They are only good for the Hooter girls and the cold beer.

I tend to stay away from any kind of chain when I want good wings. The smaller places tend to have more flavorful sauces as well as the heat I crave.

My fave is the extra hot with garlic. I love the way the garlic makes my lips tingle after I have downed a dozen or so of them.

Today I completed the fabled 911 Challenge. I've also eaten at the famous Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York.

The challenge was exactly as this article described -- an almost unappetizing amount of dark-red sauce, lightheadedness, the wolfing down of remaining wings when the time was about to run out, a friend's sprint to the Safeway next door for a half-gallon of milk, and the cheering of patrons afterward.

The worst parts of the challenge were the overload of sauce, the spice of the wings combined with high just-fried temperature, and the feeling of a sunburn around my mouth for the rest of the day. It was certainly a challenge, but I got a shirt :-)

I even ordered some of their breast strips afterward that, despite the reports in previous posts, were juicy, breaded & fried just right. I definitely plan on going back for some less-insane but tasty chicken.

The "Suicidal" sauce at the Anchor Bar is actually quite good and isn't unreasonably hot. You can even buy it in supermarkets nowadays near the Tabasco. I hear there's another bar in Buffalo that's even _better_ than Anchor.

i ate these godforsaken satan nuggets on an empty stomach and ended up hurling boiling hot magma puke until i couldn't gag anymore shortly after the challenge. the t-shirt was totally worth it though.

i tried to do that at the one in Chapel Hill NC with a buddy of mine. He's going into the special forces . . . i don't know i thought he'd be tough. we got to the last wing and he yelled "my effing throat is closing up." i didn't finish either.
i threw up twice on the floor next to the drink machine.
on our way back to my friend's car he somehow vomited 911 sauce into both of his eyes. he was blind. i knew this because he was running around screaming and tripped over the same curb at least 8 times. i continued to throw up for another 11 hours.

DON'T DO THIS GODDAMN CHALLENGE
