10 YEARS. 🔥🍗
What started as a fun idea between friends turned into something way bigger than imagined.
This month we celebrate the 10-year anniversary of King of the Wing — a tradition that has brought people together, created great memories, and most importantly, made a real impact.
A huge THANK YOU to our friend Joe Gillette for starting it all and asking us to be the first place to help him start it off. Because of your vision and everyone who has participated, supported, competed, and showed up year after year… This event has raised over $500,000 for the American Cancer Society. That’s something truly special.
From that first contest back in 2016 to now — this event has grown beyond The Kettle Black and into something that’s touched communities across the country.
It’s never just been about wings…
It’s about purpose.
It’s about people.
It’s about giving back.
Here’s to 10 years — and we’re just getting started.
