i don't even go to the popeyes in my city and especially the one in the city.....only been there once.

I always found this scene weird. There have to be better chicken places in ATL than Popeyes. It's like seeing a Philly person hype about Pat's or Genos.

:dunno: What else would you expect from a fast food joint that is literally named after a drunk sailor with a quick-trigger temper who fought all the time?

Actually:
  • 1972
Alvin C. Copeland Sr., opens “Chicken on the Run” in the New Orleans suburb of Arabi, serving traditional Southern-fried chicken.

After several months of lackluster performance, he reopens the restaurant as “Popeyes” (after Popeye Doyle of The French Connection). This time he sells spicy, New Orleans-style chicken.

Good question:



The Atlanta-based company had been paying around $1.1 million annually to the character’s owner, King Features Syndicate, but the restaurant chain says it has been phasing out its use of Popeye’s image for several years. Most recently, the character had been employed to promote the company’s outlets in Puerto Rico and in international markets, including the Middle East.

Bracket of which restaurant staffs can scrap, Waffle House and Popeyes are unquestioned no 1 seeds. Waffle House is the No 1 overall seed.
