[Binbagz]

How cool. Congratulations to the winners. See the Quaker Steak & Lube win again. Thats one trip I'm gonna have to make at some point. Their reputation for wings extends it's arms even as far as my side of the atlantic. Keep trying guys who knows maybe one day the giant will fall, in a true david and goliath moment. Lmao

Quaker steak and lube has some great sauces, but their wings are somewhat pricey. My suggestion is to get an order of fries with a side of the atomic sauce. (And a stella artois beer). I am curious, it use to be a western PA chain, then they opened up in cleveland, and fl. Which locations do you guys go to?
