Chase's Way to bring in the New Year



I found this article while messing around on the Internet. If anyone knows anything about Chase, it is that he LOVES Chicken Nuggets. I think that this would be what he would choose to have drop on New Years...complete with dipping sauce and all. :-)


Ga. restaurant marks 2009 with chicken nugget drop

MCDONOUGH, Ga. (AP) -- For millions, New Years is marked by the descent of the giant crystal ball in Times Square. For others, it's a giant acorn or peach. But perhaps the most savory countdown is in McDonough, Georgia, where thousands gathered Wednesday to watch a giant chicken nugget drop into a vat of dipping sauce.

The 6-foot-tall, 800-pound nugget is actually plaster and vat is filled with syrup and food coloring meant to resemble honey mustard, "but it looks real," said Liz Stavely, a manager at Truett's Grill, which hosts the annual event.

The crowd was entertained by a fire-eating magician, bungee jumping, a caricature artist and musicians. The restaurant, part of the Chick-fil-A chain, offered free chicken nuggets.

Really?!?! Of all the things I have been easily entertained by before I can't imagine being excited to go see the chicken nugget dunk! :) Funny stuff.
