DEAL ALERT: The Flying Saucer will offer half-off wings during Thursday football games. Normal price is $17.49 for 10 jumbo party wings, so when the special is on you can get ’em for $8.75. I believe the flavor choices are traditional Buffalo, honey sriracha, and Cajun dry rub.
The Saucer has a munchie menu during football. It features healthy choices such as chili cheese Rocket Tots and a chicken-jalapeno sausage corn dog. Last night I cashed in some of my trivia winnings on Nachos Libre, a big plate of cheesy goodness with spiced ground beef, black beans, and pico de gallo.
Loflin Yard will have brunch beats with DJ Tree Sunday.
