I have come the conclusion after multiple attempts that I am unfortunately having to retire from all wing places. Every time I hit one it’s a sweaty, burning mess all night with wet wipes as my only friend. Middle age sucks.

Even if you go with milder flavors? Many places offer multiple options with some being anything but hot.
If a place does wings really well (i.e…smoked), you can even order them plain (and dip in ranch or something, if you’d like).
I can't believe it is the wings themselves that are causing the issues.
Haven’t tried plan wings without the spices but I have tried milder flavors like that garlic one at bww and Asian zing. Same result. Getting plain ones might be my only option but that kind of feels like ordering a salad at a great steak place.
Had some fantastic smoked wings at Society out in Denver when I was in town and went to a gamewatch.
The only caveat was that I nearly devoured my hand, but if you can get smoked wings anywhere it’s usually worth it.
That sounds like significant improvement over the ridiculous wait times they had earlier this year when they weren't even busy.

Yeah, smoked wings are amazing. If the rub is good enough, you don't need sauce on them, but you can if you want.
Was craving some wings tonight, so decided to give the Merle Hay Wingstop a try. Have only been to the Ames location once and dined in. Waited 45 min for food then, which seems to be a similar experience to others.
Decided to try online ordering for the first time, and it made a difference. My order was ready when I arrived to pay, wings were excellent (Cajun and lemon pepper) and fries were good. So I'll echo others that say online ordering seems to be the key to eating at Wingstop.
I'll note that the only delay I had when I got there was because the gentleman ahead of me had an online order that didn't get processed or something
So still might be hit or miss for some (he then had to wait for them to whip him up some wings), but I had a better experience this go around.

Oh good. I haven’t been to Ames in several years. Glad it’s not “Ames location is now closed”. I can not imagine how difficult this last year has been.
Business must be going well for him. He was in Cedar Falls last month looking for potential locations for another one
Is Seneca opening all the wing stops in Iowa? Is Ankeny his?
I love that a bunch of Cyclones are opening these restaurants

Place seems busy with takeout orders every time I’m in there.
I think I read the Ankeny one was his as well? Manager was wearing an ISU polo when I went in.
The Ankeny space is small and there's no dining space. But takeout/delivery seems to be Wingstop's MO
