General manager Paul Smith is hoping for cool temps to go with the hot wings Sunday at Chattanooga Market.
“We had wonderful crowds all summer, even with the excessive heat,” he said. “But we did notice a great turnout last weekend as it was the first Sunday not in the 90s.”
The expected high Sunday is 77, he said, and the new earlier date for the Kick’n Chick’n Hot Wings Cook-Off should bring in a crowd.
“Kick’n Chick’n has been such a great event,” he said. “We had it placed in November the last two years, but it has become so popular we moved it up on the calendar to give it a better audience.”
