KETTERING — Rainy weather didn’t deter dozens of chicken wing enthusiasts Saturday evening.
The Kickin’ Chicken Wing Festival was held at Fraze Pavillion Saturday from 3-10 p.m.
During the festival, 13 different local restaurants and food trucks compete against each other to see who had the best wings in town.
People could stroll through the pavilion and taste wongs from all over the Miami Valley while listening to live music.
They can go online and vote for their favorite wing.

Judges, including WHIO Radio’s own Todd Holst, will also be putting their two cents in.
People can vote on the best of four categories: best wing, best sauce, best boneless and best side item.
Dan Apolito, an owner of Archers Tavern in Centerville, said the restaurant has competed in the contest for more than 11 years.
“We’re prepared, we’re under the tent, we even have a tent for our friers, so we’ll stay here as long as it’s safe,” Apolito said.
He said by 10 p.m. Saturday night the judges will have chosen their favorite wing.
