Events Test Your Wings: Hot Chicken Festival Calling for Entries
Posted by Carrington Fox on Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 6:40 AM
With the July 4 festivities advancing like a line of British musketeers, the Music City Hot Chicken Festival is calling for fearless contestants to enter the third annual amateur chicken cook-off.
To apply for one of six bird-cooking bids, send an e-mail to contest@hotchickenfestival.com with the following information:
- Contestant/Team Name
- Primary Contact
- Address
- Phone Number
- Two paragraphs explaining why you should win the chance to compete
Deadline for entries is Friday, June 12. Selected contestants will check-in with their spices and equipment at East Park no later than 11:00 a.m. on July 4; cooking begins at high noon. The event goes until 3 p.m., with free samples from 400˚, Bolton's Spicy Chicken and Fish and Prince's Hot Chicken Shack, as well as entertainment and family-friendly activities.
Now, I don't have any inside information on the selection process, but it seems to me that a good name is key. It's going to be hard to beat past contender Poultry in Motion, but maybe the Bites team can help.
Drive-By Cluckers? Bird on the Street? The Fowl Players? Surely you can do better...
