Why is everyone losing their minds over a chicken sandwich?
There’s been countless fights.
One guy has a lawsuit against Popeyes for running out of sandwiches.
Now there’s been team members held at gunpoint.
What da blue hell peeps.

I think it's less about the sandwich itself, and more about the possibility of them unseating a franchise that is rather unpopular (and oftentimes, seen as a Hate vector) amongst the younger generations.

There's a Popeyes not far from me and I noticed a line onto the main road last week. Total insanity. It did remind me of when Chick-fil-A opened down the road and it was insane. I have to say I think KFC is in danger of really being left in the dust in this chicken restaurant war. Last time I went there it was awful.
I'll tell you the place that should blow up next: Lee's. Best chicken breast strips in the business, especially with ranch. I don't think they do it as a sandwich, but if they did a sandwich and had ranch on it you might see craziness there.

Popeye's really needs to decrease their New Orleans advertisements and increase advertisements based on their origin as a fried chicken restaurant named after Popeye Doyle.

My wife was out and about like a week or so ago and asked if I wanted to try the sandwich. I had wanted to, so I said yes. She went up and a sign said they were out. I was annoyed wondering how a chicken fast food place be out of chicken sandwiches. Then I saw online that it was the entire country. LOL Hopefully I will get to try it eventually. I do like Popeyes chicken much better than KFC. I feel like KFCs is way too greasy.

The last time I went to KFC I honestly couldn't tell if I was eating chicken or fish. That's how ugh it was. As far as Popeyes goes I'll eventually try the epic Sandwich of Greatness once the fuss dies down. It's not hard to see how this could happen though, the shortages I mean. Popeyes really hasn't been some amazingly popular restaurant, so when they had a particular item that became an enormous blockbuster they may not have had something like that in mind.

At first I thought it was a brilliant viral marketing campaign by Popeyes. And honestly it originally might have been. But currently? I think some batshit crazy people are running wild with it. Add to that the fact that they are running out of the popular sandwich, it's a wacky combination.
You know, I've seen lots of stories about being going apeshit over Mcnuggets and sauce. And Chick Fil-a. What's up with fast food fried chicken making people crazy?
And yes I say this as somebody that is probably classified as being addicted to fried chicken. It's my one weakness. Well, two weaknesses if you could Icee Machines.

As much as I would like to try it, I am sure it's no different than having a chicken sandwich from KFC, Wendy's, or Chick-Fil-A.

I was at a popeye's two days ago... my friend said he wanted to try the sandwich they told him it would be an hour before it was ready... so... uh... yeah... he got something else

I don't care about the sandwiches. I go to Popeyes for chicken tenders and cajun fries. But I still have to make a line at the drive thru because people keep thinking there's sandwiches. Even though there are papers posted all over the drive thru saying they are out.
I just wanted a pepsi chicken tenders.

Popeye's really needs to decrease their New Orleans advertisements and increase advertisements based on their origin as a fried chicken restaurant named after Popeye Doyle. But according to friends that managed a Popeyes,that Fake ass Cajun crap in the commercials is what draws people to the stores. Even if lots of the stores are in areas where people see real cajuns often so know that the Popeyes commecials are as bad as Keanu Reeves accent in Bram Stoker's Dracula.

But sales would be 10 fold if they had "French Connection" based advertisements!

Love Popeye's, but I will say that people losing their minds over a chicken sandwich is f***ing ridiculous.
