: 200,000 MediaTakeOut.com readers got their FREE CHICKEN on yesterday. And a few million more nationwide did also. But KFC’s free chicken offer got a little crazy. Apparently in a store in NYC, they ran out of chicken … and it caused a number of people to stage a SIT IN at KFC …
Here’s what one reader sent into AOL’s blog:
I went over to our nearest KFC a few minutes ago...and chaos ensued. Despite the very visible grilled chicken behind the register, the manager told everyone with coupons to leave and that the promotion was over for the day.BTW ... nobody said "No justice … no 2 PIECE" we added that cause it just sounded HILARIOUS!!!The people there are currently holding a sit-in and refusing to leave until they get their free chicken .. .or the cops are called.
Racial epithets were being spewed, people who actually wanted to pay for chicken were facing a potential beatdown, and the manager ran from the screaming horde. Oprah, what have ye wrought?
What got me is the youtube video of the popeyes story in rochester, ny...People saying how are they going to feed their families...ummmm, get you arse in the kitchen and cook for your kids or go to another spot...
It was wrong that they only showed the urban areas because I heard the suburbs ran out to, but the ignorance was just sad to see...
Its chicken people...we got to do better than this! Get online, get a copy cat recipe, and fry your own birds!
SMDH
lmao.. things were definitely pretty hectic yesterday. I hit 2 different KFC's for lunch and dinner. Also made sure to stop by Arby's since it was wednesday (all ice tea free on weds.) I made copies of my coupon and will be back up in that thang today for lunch and *** for dinner.. too bad there is no free tea on thursdays. but for real Oprah should be giving the KFC employees bonuses for this mess. i mean, every employee had a look of frustration. they were just throwing the chicken in the box, slamming coleslaw into the the little cups, it was funny as hell, yet, i felt for them.
yeah i woulda been actin like a ***.igga too!!
SHOW ME THE CHICKEN!!
you cant be a chicken place and give away coupons and then run out!!!!
that *** is crazy... if they think they gon run out they *** even have the coupon special
KFC is about to go out of business another, thats why they are having all of these gimics
lol
lmao

THIS WHOLE "FREE KFC CHICKEN" SH*T IS A SCHEME TO GET BLACK FOLKS RILED UP!!

THEY ARE TELLING PEOPLE TO COME BACK AFTER THURSDAY WHEN THEY GET ANOTHER ***!?? THEY *** HAVE POSTED THE COUPON UNTIL FRIDAY THEN! AND NOT ALL KFC'S ARE HONORING THE COUPONS BECAUSE THEY ARE FRANCHISES, SO JUST TO PREPARE YOU BEFORE YOU CUSS PEOPLE OUT LIKE WE ALL DID YESTERDAY! HERE IN HOUSTON (NW) THERE IS ONLY ONE KFC THAT'S HONORING THE COUPONS. I HEARD THAT THE CHICKEN ISN'T ALL THAT ANYWAY, BUT YOU CAN EMAIL KFC & COMPLAIN IF IT'S THAT SERIOUS TO YOU. I PREFER POPEYES ANYWAY!! YOU DON'T SEE THEM GIVING AWAY FREE CHICKEN 'CUZ THEY ALREADY KNOW!!!

its not that serious for some *** chicken the coupon was given to me and i gave mines away not that i dont luv kfc but i knew that tha lines would be from here to new york . for some reason i feel like this is some kind of joke or example of how much black people like chicken . black man president now popeyes and kfc giving away free chicken . whats next if we get a mexican president free taco bell wit the little dog yo quireo taco bell ?
@getittogetha, there were far more whites at the kfc I went to than blacks. Matter of fact I was the only black there so I dont really know if that was the case. I think Oprah did something special to help us out. It was a nice gesture. Hell white folk eat just as much chicken. I never saw so many white boys with a coupon in their hands!!
Yall funny MTO!! Actually, I just finished reading on people.com that although they ran out of chicken everyone was calm and peaceful about it. These are hilarious stories though especially with popeyes a few weeks ago. That was my laugh for the day seeing how people have almost a religious experience over some dang old chicken that you can buy from the store and fry up yourself! we can do so much better people

Well I *** sure went and got mine for lunch and dinner. Im in Charlotte,NC and it was just as many WHITE folks in line as it was BLACK folk! Everybody getting that free chicken! Like back in the days in the hood where thay hade the FREE LUNCH LINE(LOL) How many of u remember that? those were the days....
now,i ain't gone front...im a sucka for some chicken! that's my favorite food 'specially if it's fried. i ain't with standing in line all day to cop a peice,though. y'all better watch out...remember the movie undercover brother? the white man might be looking for a way to slowly "off" black people through something they love and purchase often:chicken. sounds crazy,but might be true.
All anybody got to say to Black folks is "free chicken" and we go running into the streets. They are going to keep on until one of us kills the other one. All for a piece of free chicken. This is starting to get embarrassing....it ain't even funny no more. The KFC near my house has traffic jams, cars backed up...go sit down somewhere!
DIS MAKES OUR AZZES LOOK SO *** BAD AND I BET CRACKAS IN THEIR LIVING ROOMS ROLLIN' LAUGHING AT OUR IGNORANT AZZES. SOMEONE SENT ME THAT STUPID AZZ TEXT MESSAGES EARLIER DIS' WEEK AND MY DAUGHTER GOT MAD CUZ I WOULDN'T GO.

IT ONLY AFFIRMS TO WHITEY DAT NUCCAS LOVES CHICKEN. AND OPRAH NEED HER RICH FAT AZZ WHOOPE FOR EVEN PLAYIN' HER PEOPLE LIKE THAT! WHY COULDN'T IT HAD BEEN THE OLIVE GARDEN OR SOME ***!
@LovelyLashes - I AGREE! I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR THE LONGEST. HALF OF US CAN'T STAND IN LINE TO VOTE A BLACK MAN IN BUT WHEN IT'S SOME FREE CHICKEN (2 PIECES AT THAT) THEY RIOT LIKE THE RODNEY KING VERDICT! AND SOME OF EM' SO STUPID! IT PROBABLY COSTS YOU THAT MUCH IN GAS TO DRIVE DOWN THERE OR SIT WAITING IN THE DRIVE THRU THAT LONG. IF I WORKED AT KFC THAT DAY I WOULD'VE WALKED OUT NO JOKE! IN THE MIDDLE OF A RECESSION!
@UaDummy247- LMAO! ME, YOU, MY DAUGHTER AND A COUPLE MORE OF US WOULD'VE BEEN SURVIVORS! DEM' CRACKAS PUTTING ARSENIC IN DAT *** CHICKEN AND THA GULLIBLE NUCCAS GONE TURN BELLY UP LIKE A ***' RAT!

NVDdark1 Flag post i heard Wendys got FREE water...hurry up before it runs out!! *** my people, nobody stops to think why the two main chicken companys are all of a sudden jsut givin away free food?? i'll pass ###########################################
U right, I was always suspect at MacDonald's $1.00 fillet of fish Friday special, when that thing cost +/- $2.99 any other time. It didn't taste the same so I gave it up.
@ LovelyLashes- LOL! I CAN SEE ME NOW. BEHIND THE CASH REGISTER OR AT THE DRIVE THRU WINDOW. AS SOON AS I HEARD SOMEBODY YELL "WE OUT!". I WOULD'VE TAKEN OFF MY APRON OR MY PLASTIC GLOVES, MY SUN-VISOR AND SAID "MAIL ME MY LAST CHECK IN THE MAIL" AND RAN UP OUTTA THERE! BELEIVE ME THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN YOUR OWN KIND COMING UP IN YO' JOB GIVING YOU A HARD TIME. LOL!
To everyone who thought they'd get free chicken, guess what? THEY AIN'T NO MO!!!!
Yes, that's right. Black folks swarmed every KFC in America after Ms. Oprah Winfrey declared it "Free Chicken Day at KFC" on her.
Because of the high demand for the free meal, KFC has decided not to feed another black person, another piece of chicken.
As a matter of fact, KFC bigwigs have contacted all of the chicken farms across America to let them know that the "free chicken" epidemic will "wipe them out" if they continue to supply KFC with chicken, therefore, putting a halt to Ms. Winfrey's free chicken meal.
So black people, there you have it. We have officially become the most greediest, chicken -eatin fools in America .
God Bless America !
AND PEOPLE JUMPED DOWN MY THROAT WHEN I SAID DIS SOME RACIST A*S SH*T. BUT NOW PEOPLE STAGIN SIT-INS LIKE NOT GIVIN THEM THEIR FREE CHICKEN IS AN INJUSTICE? NAW BLACKS NOT BEING ALLOWED TO VOTE IS AN INJUSTICE. THIS SH*T RIGHT HERE? THIS IS A SHAME, IS WHAT IT IS
SOMETIMES MY SOUL CRIES
IS THIS WHAT MY BLACK BROTHAS AND SISTAS ARE DOING IN 2009? REALLY? FOR SOME FREE CHICKEN? BLACK PEOPLE WE HAVE GOT TO DO BETTER IN 2009.
ITS 2009!!!!!
CIAO, PRETTYDIVA83
P.S- IM SURE GLAD IM A VEGAN IN 2009, AINT NOBODY WOULD BE ABLE TO MISTAKE ME IN DAT IGNORANT CROWD
Black people will go crazy about some chicken, want we? LOL On a serious note, KFC DID NOT RUN OUT OF CHICKEN! The president of the company saw that he was losing lots of money with this promotion. This was mainly due to the fact that someone had started a website were counterfeit coupons could be printed. *Cant blame the man, he gotta eat too!
