A man has filed a class-action lawsuit against Buffalo Wild Wings for their 'boneless wings.' Aimen Halim claims that the restaurant chain's 'boneless wings' aren't actually wings, but are more similar to chicken nuggets.

Halim, the plaintiff, says in the complaint, "the Products are not wings at all, but instead, slices of chicken breast meat deep-fried like wings. Indeed, the Products are more akin, in composition, to a chicken nugget rather than a chicken wing."

The complaint says that the restaurant chain is committing false advertising. The lawsuit also cites a New York Times article, which reported that selling boneless wings became more popular due to the rising cost of chicken wings, while the cost of chicken breasts decreased. The complaint was filed on Friday in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Illinois. Hamlin is seeking damages and injunctive relief, among other things.

I've always said the same thing, there's no such thing as a "boneless wing", but, I never thought about suing over it. Hopefully a judge will toss this out as the ridiculousity it is.

Why is the guy eating crap in the first place? Assumption of risk.

All courts have rules regarding frivolous lawsuits; judges are just scared to use them.

How can you debone a wing without ending up with a lump of chicken that needs reshaping?


I agree it makes no sense but a lawsuit is a bit much!

It's not even that. They are basically chicken tenders flavored with the same wing sauces they use on the regular wings.

Yes, in very few instances are the rules on frivolous lawsuits used.

That's what happens when you get a judge appointed by Bill Clinton.
