• Death Wings

  So I had the Death Wings.
  
  The Challenge
  
  The waiver we had to sign to be allowed to eat the wings

  
  Tony, Buch, and I ready for the challenge
  
  All the necessary supplies. A firemans hat, some beer, and the rescue bell. If it gets too hot, you ring the bell and you are brought…
   
  A tiny little tray with a shot of milk, some ice cream, sugary cream and a slice of bread. So as you can see, I was eating the wings without a safety net (new readers: i am HORRIBLY lactose intolerant…possibly even lactose rascist)
  
  chaser: who could possibly need this?
  
  A couple wings in….he could

  And how did I fare? well, i managed to pack away 4 of the wings in the basket, with the other 6 by buch and tony.
  
  okay, so i worked up a bit of a sweat, and maybe my face felt a LITTLE tingly and numb, but overall did i think they were spicy? not very…
  
  well, okay, maybe just a little bit. I resorted to this after i had chugged 2 beers at the table to douse the fire in my mouth from the combined wings and habanero pepper i ate straight following said wings. Mind you, one of those beers was not even mine, it was simply liberated from buch when i couldnt take the heat.

  Seriously though, the wings WERE spicy, but not as much as I had expected them to be…after all, i still have yet to finish Orochon’s special #2 ramen, and yet i could have easily polished off a basket of these wings.

  To celebrate our acommplishent, the bar staff, took our picture for the wall of bravery and gave us a pin that said we did it. I wore my firemans hat the rest of the day as we wandered up and down michigan avenue

  The end of this culinary adventure…what else lies in store for The Josh in 2008?
