National Chicken Wing Day deals at Wingstop, Buffalo Wild Wings

National Chicken Wing Day is on Monday, July 29.

Don’t get it confused with National Chicken Tender Day, which was Saturday, July 27. That “holiday” made up by Raising Cane’s founder to celebrate its chicken tenders means Caniac Club members can still get a free tender through Tuesday, July 30.

National Chicken Wing Day began in 1977, when then-mayor of Buffalo, New York Stan Makowski, proclaimed July 29 as a day to celebrate Buffalo wings. 

Remember to check the social media accounts for deals, too.
