This Sunday is the biggest football game of the year, and that means one thing ... it's time for wings in New Orleans! 

The National Chicken Council estimated that more than 1.3 billion wings were eaten during the 2019 Super Bowl weekend — and that number just keeps going up year after year. 

New Orleans is no exception in our love for wings — and New Orleans restaurants sure know how to make wings delicious enough we can't help but devour them down to the bone!
