Guests gathered in a back room of First as each wing was introduced with its own theme song. The winning wing by Chef Jake Mual was introduced by The Charlie Daniels Band’s “The Devil Went Down to Georgia.” His winning creation, Bootleggers Kickin’ Wing, featured chicken wings wrapped in prosciutto, covered in a Jim Beam chipotle BBQ sauce and served with a roasted corn and cilantro pudding. Guests then watched contestants put it down in a wing eating competition.

The crowd goes wild for wings!
