ABC Events Inc. is excited to bring you the 5th annual Maryland Chicken Wing Festival. I went to this last year. I posted a video on Facebook about the event. Check it out here.

I’m planning on going again this year to taste more chicken. But it’s better to go with a group so you can divide and conquer the lines and maximize the chicken wing taste testing. Who’s down with me.

5 Must Do’s

If you’re thinking about going, here are my 5 must-do’s if you go:

1. Go with a group of people. The lines are long, so you can divide and conquer the different venues.
2. Get there early. I went around 12:30. Traffic to the event was backed up just to get in the parking lot. You also will be able to taste more chicken because the lines get longer that later it gets.
3. Bring cash. This way you won’t go over budget on all the different yummy options, you avoid atm fees, and the lines move quicker with cash
4. Meet people. I had great conversations with the people I was standing in line with. You can share which vendors are a must-see and which ones are so-so. I ended up eating with the two ladies from Silver Spring I stood in line with.
5. Bring some tupperware. I know…this sounds a little urban-centric (i.e., ghetto). But in the event you want to buy some wings to take home, or you don’t want to finish all your wings right now but want to save some for later, you’ll have a sealable container to put them in instead of wrapping them in aluminum foil hoping they don’t spill inside your purse. Smart…right! Your welcome.
