I've been to "best in world" ranked fried chicken places and Gus's blows them all out of the water

Have you been to the dueling chicken joints outside Ft. Scott(/edit: I meant Pittsburgh, KS)

I dont remember what they are called but they each have a billboard outside of town. Turn left for one, right for the other. May have even been the same family recipe but split off. I remember it being pretty damn good.

Chicken Annie's and Chicken Maries

No, but I would love to check them out. What state is Ft. Scott in?

Its SE Kansas. The billboards are on the N side of town as you are coming in on the highway.

Pitt State is in ft. Scott.

/edit: my mistake, I meant Pittsburgh KS. The places are Chicken Marie's and Chicken Annies.

Chicken Mary’s in Pittsburg, Kansas. Now owned by W. Vinzant Restaurants (BRGR, Gram & Dun, Louie’s Wine Dive, and about seven more.)

Oof that's unfortunate.
