Jimmy Does Celebratory King of the Wings Chicken Dance in His Boxers [VIDEO]

Jimmy's Old Town Tavern celebrated its second King of the Wings win with a special chicken dance.

Jimmy's Old Town Tavern won Northern Virginia Magazine's King of the Wings contest for the second year in a row.  The first year of the contest owner Jimmy Cirrito promised he would do the chicken dance in his boxers on Elden Street — a promise he made good on when he won in March 2011.  This year he said he would take his chicken dance to the streets again if he continued his reign as King of the Wings.  [Want to stay on top of news in Herndon? Sign up for our daily or breaking news emails.]
