Ordered a Bloody Mary at an airport bar. Dude said "it comes with a chicken wing, you want it?" "Well, if it comes with it..."

Fucking thing was a meal. Had two big chicken wings, fried onion rings, tomato, pickle, all sorts of nonsense on a stick.

I'm all for a Bloody Mary with pickles and stuff, but, like, keep it simple. A pickle spear, some pearl onions, some spicy green beans, nothing crazy like this.

Also, bacon? C'mon get that greasy shit out of my cocktail!

Was the chicken wing hanging off the side of the glass? Like was it dipped in the cocktail? I think I might try that.

Have to disagree with you on the bacon. It’s really good after it’s soaked up some of the Bloody Mary flavor. Plus celery is nature’s cocktail stirrer!

I'm with you on the celery and veg, (and most anything pickled) but I don't want meat or fried things in my cocktails. But horses for courses and what not so you enjoy your bacon booze.

The chicken wings were on a skewer stuck in the drink. I think I got a picture of the monstrosity somewhere and if I can remember to look for it, I'll reply with it. It was an impressive amount of food for a cocktail order haha!

… horses… for courses…?

Literally never heard this phrase before, but it seems very similar to “different strokes for different folks.”

It doesn’t make any sense to me but I kind of love it.
