Americans will eat 1.48 billion chicken wings during the big game

The National Chicken Council says Americans will devour 1.48 billion chicken wings during the Super Bowl.
That’s an increase of 10 million wings from last year.
That’s enough wings to circle the Earth three times.
If the wings were laid end-to-end they’d stretch 27 times from New England to Seattle
Eat one wing every 30 seconds and you’ll finish right around the year 3430
You’d need more than 3,400 fully loaded semi-trucks to haul them all – enough trucks to make a 40-mile long convoy of nothing but wings
In the last four weeks (playoff window), chicken wing units surged nationally 19.8% year-over-year and dollars were up 11.4% versus the prior period.
My last question is where did they get all of the chickens from? Read more about our big game eats here
