You don't even have to buy it at Costco. Just pick one from the sample tables.

It runs around on a few Rush riffs, then plops back down in its case.

Being from western NY (the original home of chickenbacker buffalo wings) I am partial to such over all forms of chickenbacker.

And I love how everyone has managed to steer this conversation van right up a tree.
