Comments on: Hot Wings and a Waiver To Go: Restaurant Claims Patrons Must Sign A Waiver To Eat Its Wings http://www.concurringopinions.com/archives/2008/01/hot_wings_and_a.html The Law, the Universe, and Everything Mon, 22 Mar 2010 05:51:04 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Matt http://www.concurringopinions.com/archives/2008/01/hot_wings_and_a.html/comment-page-1#comment-64649 Matt Tue, 21 Jul 2009 23:51:51 +0000 http://www.solove.org/archives/2008/01/hot-wings-and-a-waiver-to-go-restaurant-claims-patrons-must-sign-a-waiver-to-eat-its-wings.html#comment-64649 I tried the Chicago hot wings mentioned in the article this weekend. Jake Melnick's Corner Tap on Superior Ave. did not make me sign a waiver, so they must be lightening up on that a bit. If their web site is to be believed, the pepper is the Red Savina with a few drops of Bhut Jolokia thrown in to the mix. So so so hot, but so so so good.

It is a dated stunt, though, and if they were *really* on their game, they'd be using a Naga Jolokia...

Quaker Steak and Lube in Pittsburgh has been doing it as least since 2005, and I know there are smaller local places that have been doing the same thing for much longer. Usually the waivers are combinations of joke and marketing. How did this place in Chicago manage to get so much publicity over what' really an old stunt?
