It’s Tuesday… which means you’re close enough to the weekend to start making questionable plans responsibly. 😎🍻
Why spend another evening pretending to be productive when you could be mentally preparing for a bonafide, proclamated, guaranteed good time with the world famous Chicken on the Bone? 🐔🎸

Don’t be the person hearing about how much fun everybody else had. That’s embarrassing. 😏

Call your people. Start the group text. Make arrangements.

Well now… look who survived the weekend. 😎
But don’t get too comfortable—Monday is just the annoying commercial break before the next Chicken on the Bone party. If your body hurts, your voice is gone, and you’re questioning some of your life choices… congratulations, you weekended correctly. 🍻
Thanks to everybody who came out and acted responsibly irresponsible with us at the Bourbon Bandstand this weekend. We saw the dancing, heard the singing, and witnessed some absolutely questionable choreography. We approve. ❤️
Now hydrate, pretend to work, and start preparing for next Friday at 12:15 pm, when the world famous Chicken on the Bone returns to the Bourbon Bandstand, 441 Bourbon Street, for another bonafide guaranteed good time.
