Sarah Baker, assistant manager at The Wing Cafe and Tap House in Marietta, said rumor has it the flavor’s popularity traces back to the 1970s. “People from Buffalo – because that’s where the Buffalo wing started – moved down to Atlanta, and they started opening Taco Macs in the 70s,” Baker said. By the 1980s, J.R. Crickets became an Atlanta anchor, popularizing lemon pepper flavors in the South. The flavor is now a national mainstay. Tyler Cartwright said he sees a long future in sign spinning, even if he eventually pursues another career. “I can see myself being a sign spinner well into my 50s,” he said. “I absolutely agree. I think everybody should agree,” Baker said about Georgia claiming the flavor as its own. But leave it to humans to argue about everything. On Tuesday, a federal judge in Illinois dismissed a fraud lawsuit in which a man claimed that Buffalo Wild Wings’ boneless wings are just chicken nuggets. Lemon pepper flavoring has few such detractors, and Bell said the flavor is one that could unite people across the political spectrum. “Lemon pepper is something that we all can get along with,” Bell said.
