  1. Am I the only person who found it HILARIOUS that they only showed African Americans complaining?! Not being racist, but that’s pretty fucking funny!!!

  2. I love the last comment by the anchor that said Popeye’s corporate stated the franchises were independently owned and responsible for ordering there own chicken. Talk about shifting the blame! Something tells me that corporate is is the culprit here. My guess is, they wanted to sell the franchise owners a walking ton of chicken at regular wholesale prices, while expecting the owner/operators to take it on the chin with the new pricing. I’ll admit it probably backfired for the owner/operators more than it did for corporate, in customer relations, but sometimes you have to draw a line in the sand. If I was an owner and corporate told me I needed to work my people to death for no profit, I would probably do the same thing. I have had Popeye’s chicken, it’s real good, so they won’t be losing much business.

  3. Popeye’s chicken beats KFC all to pieces. No comparison. I think KFC sell groundhog instead of chicken.

  4. all the shit going down in this country and people are pissed off about chicken???

    popeyes is good but I remeber eating and London and Sons Wings in North St. Louis long long ago. It use to blow their minds when this here big ‘ol white boy used to go in and order a pile of wings and sides of bean and rice.

    have to check them out next time in StL. Are they still in business?

  5. Erin… I don’t think there are too many whiteys around Rochester, NY.

    At least none dumb enough to try to compete with African-Americans for $4.99 8-pieces!

  6. The only popeye’s here in tucson just recently shut down. It’s all about Lucky Wishbone (local chicken joint)

  7. That happened to a Popeye’s around here, they ran out of white meat or something.. Only thighs and a leg left. It was okay since I wanted shrimp anyhow. ;3 People were whining and screaming. The lady at the first of the video annoys me.. feed her kids? Why don’t you try cooking them a wholesome meal instead of shoveling greasy food down their hole. These are the kind of people that can use a break from fast food anyways.

  8. Rochester is a weird place. I have been there a lot and have many friends from there…they call it “Crotchfester”. Oh, and KLAW, that’s racist.

  9. WOW! Things in Rochester must be pretty good for everybody to be eating out all the time. IF that’s the only thing they have to complain about, they’ll be ok.

    Anyone notice the SIZE of all those people in line? The chicken MUST be good and greasy!

    You’d think they sold spinach…….

  10. The word “spook” is a common Halloween term. You guys sure have a way of twisting things around. I am not a racist, alot of my friends are porch monkeys.
