I heard about this on the radio and would love to enter this wing eating contest. I was in a wing eating contest before and came in close 2nd place to the italian stallion (not Rocky but close). PLEASE let me know if there’s any possible way I can enter. And my birthday is on May 30th. This is my wish.

Hi Ben,
Try calling the event organizers – USA Entertainment at (404) 456-4655. Good luck and please let us know how you do.
Journey tribute band? I’m there! Can i wear my jorts?
Yes you can. In fact, I think it is encouraged.
Are coolers & beer allowed to be brought in?
Hi Scott,
The event organizers tell us that although this event is sanctioned by the City of Marietta, it is not a city event and no outside food or beverages are allowed. There will be plenty of cold beer and hot wings available for purchase, and the entertainment is free.
last year they allowed coolers…wonder why they aren’t this year. That stinks because the beers last year were really expensive
Are there hotels near this event?
Hi Starlit,
Yes, there are several hotels in the area, including the historic Hilton Atlanta/Marietta Conference Center located at 500 Powder Springs St SW, Marietta, GA. Their phone number is (866) 920-8082 and they are less than a mile from the square.
what is the schedule of bands playing?
