299. Never gone in one - and wouldn't. It's a gag with coworkers
the guys say "they have great wings - I go for the wings" and the women laugh (in a mocking way) about the reputation of the *fabulous* gourmet cooking for which the chain is known *insert big eye-roll*.

Clearly the chain isn't going anywhere. We have to live with it. However, I would never go. Being there as a female would suggest that I am down with the objectification of women. I've waited tables, I have also worked a bar. Even without a provocative costume I had to endure a lot of sexual comments as a condition of earning my wage. Not going to support a business that is built around such an environment. I can't stop others from doing so - and don't judge - but *do* mock. *Sure its the great chicken wings*. First Amendment rights and all.
