Native New Yorker, the sports-themed family restaurant franchise, has announced the finale of the 2011 Battle of the Bone, the fourth annual contest in which contestants attempt to top each other by eating the restaurant’s famed chicken wings.
The first contest was held in May at the Tempe location, with subsequent contests running every Wednesday at different Native New Yorker locations. Each weekly location winner advanced to the Battle of the Bone Finale on Saturday in the Showroom at Talking Stick Resort.
Native New Yorker’s 2011 Battle of the Bone event features sponsors Valley Toyota Dealers, Hensley Budweiser, Arizona Diamondbacks, Talking Stick Resort and The Fan AM 1060.
Portion of the proceeds went to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International.

Contestants have 10 minutes and 60 seconds — a nod to sponsor The Fan 1060 AM and the show Calling All Sports with Roc and Manuch heard weekdays 3pm-6pm, — to eat as many wings as possible. Wings are weighed prior to the start of the contest, and again at the end of the allotted time. The person with the highest weight eaten is the winner of the contest. The medium-flavored wings are provided to the contestants in 3-pound platters, and are to be weighed after they are cooked and sauced.
