Social media marketing at its best. Once something becomes a meme and is all over FB, the masses can't stay away.

I stopped at Popeye's yesterday at 4pm for take out. Not the chicken sandwich, those aren't my thing.

I've gone there occasionally on my way home at that time and get my food in less than 5 minutes. This time the drive thru was packed so I parked and went inside. The kitchen was in total chaos. It took 5 minutes standing at the counter to get waited on. Guys started piling in behind me asking if they had any chicken sandwiches left. One guy said he was there the day before and they were out. I waited 25 minutes for chicken tenders and I think everyone that came in behind me all ordered the sandwich. I hate waiting for take out from a fast food joint but it was pretty entertaining listening to everyone be so enthused about a sandwich.

Popeyes is out of chicken sandwiches (for now).

When will the chicken sammich shortage end? The horror! The horror!

Nothing creates more hype than selling out before the masses get their fill. The local bbq joint always sells out of burnt ends by 1pm everyday. Guess what I want when I make sure I get there before 1? Selling out is good.

Yeah. It's similar with sneakers too. Shoe companies will on sell out and only produce so many shoes so that it drives not only the price up but the demand too. You can buy a pair of Yeezy's for like $180 but they can resell upwards to $900. Dumb.

I saw people selling a Popeyes Chicken Sandwich on Facebook for $25. They were serious, at least I think.

So here's my little chicken sandwich quest.

So i've heard all the hype. I'm busting my ass last friday doing work around the property and decide at lunch I'll run on over to Popeyes and try the damned thing out. I get there, and there is a line out the parking lot and into the main road. It looks like a solid 20-30 minute wait. Inside looks packed. Fuck that, I'll pass.

Well, now I'm in chicken sammy mode, so I figure I'll just run on down the street to KFC which can't be much different, grab a chicken sammy, and head home. Nope, there's fucking line out the parking lot there too. I guess plenty of other people got sucked in to the chicken sammy mode and weren't willing to wait at Popeyes just like me.

So, I tell myself, fuck this, just head back towards home, stop at the grocery store, and grab a sandwich there. On the way I pass a Burger King, which is doing the two for $6 chicken sammiches. Guess what? Yep, a line out the parking lot.

So, basically, let me get this straight. Some overly nerdy dude does a review of two chicken sandwiches. Gives the Chik Filet a slight edge mainly for price, but does give kudos to Popeyes, and next thing you know the midwest has a run on chicken? WTF man. I sorta just want to go to Popeyes, order some chicken strips and a bun, and make my own fucking crispy chicken sandwich.
