LSU is set to play Louisville in the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Eve, and the Tigers are certainly taking advantage of the bowl game’s sponsor, Buffalo Wild Wings.
Buffalo Wild Wings had an entire restaurant reserved for the LSU football team on Tuesday night in Orlando, and according to the restaurant’s manager, the players ate 4,000 wings. I repeat: FOUR. THOUSAND. WINGS.

Even for a full college football team, this seems like an absolutely ridiculous total. We’re not sure if that total even includes the coaching staff, and head coach Ed Orgeron ate “a lot”, because he likes wings:

Louisville surely wishes that the Citrus Bowl could be played tomorrow morning.
