It's a one-day special, and a marketing gambit of outsized proportions, served only on Thursday (June 20) for the NBA draft and only at the downtown New Orleans location at 621 Canal St.

It comes with enough fried chicken for a whole basketball team, packaged in a box that measures 82 inches long. That is six feet, 10 inches, or the "wingspan" (extended arm length) of the presumptive No. 1 NBA draft pick Williamson himself.


quote:

A special supersize box, which stretches longer than a king-sized mattress, will be filled with 77 boneless wings, 11 biscuits and 11 servings of fries. It sells for $74.69.

No lie, there’s zero chance you get this in under 45 minutes from ordering.

My sister in law works downtown and she got one for the office. They took out a measuring tape and said it wasn't 82 inches as advertised

Popeyes is a lie. Went to go get two of these for work, and they were sold out. Asked and they said they only had 6 boxes made to be sold. A lot of unhappy customers
