he results are in from the first-ever Clucks & Pucks for LLS, a wing war that benefitted the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Man and Woman of the Year Campaign, held in Albany on April 2nd. The event, created and sponsored by Little Dog Advertising and hosted by the Albany Devils and the Times Union Center, raised over $8,000 for LLS research. Patrons voted Bull and Barrel Smokehouse Grill the 1st place winner for their “Chipotle Raspberry” wings, followed by Peabody’s Sports Bar & Grill of Saratoga in 2nd place with their “Chipotle Honey and Garlic Dry-Rub Wings Tossed in House Wing Sauce”, and Rusty Nail in 3rd place with their “Wasabi Thai Chili” wings. Feedback from wing vendors and patrons alike were consistent: “We’ll definitely be back here next year!”
Little Dog Advertising’s owner, Rachele Genhofer, is “excited and hopeful about what other community-driven charity events such as Clucks & Pucks for LLS can do for local causes.” Genhofer partnered with Brendan Noonan, a 2016 candidate for LLS’ Man and Woman of the Year, for this event.
