It was looked down upon in Washington growing up because of the good and bad patrons and now it's Glorified as Saving GRACE! I saw 4 seconds of checkers talk and nothing else on old school local history! Just money, money, money!

[@StellarAvenger]

[@jamieturnage4574]

[@Animated_Chicken]

I live literally right behind king chicken and honestly I’ve never seen that back area the only thing I’ve seen is the front 😂

[@lancebaker1374]

actually, not literally (opposite of figuratively). Most popular buzzword now is literally.

[@Animated_Chicken]

Lance Baker Please Stop I was making a joke what did I do to you 😑

[@kingchicken9381]

[@eddiemoser3623]

I grew up in Washington on 9th street, walking distance, and I never saw that room either. Guess it wasn't for everybody.🤔

Smart owner black people cooking all the food. 😂😂😂

[@msway836]

that's the way it was always, like at most white owned BBQ places you will see Black men and a few women at these places in the south....

[@stephenledford3808]

Cause black people are the best cooks for sure... Some ignorant ass shit right there.

Geez King chicken can you get a couple rocking chairs and something for those old timers to play checker's on outside for gods sake???

[@Animated_Chicken]

Nick Hall they’re still out there 😂

[@shadeshiest22]

@@Animated_Chicken lol Has King Chicken finally got some chairs and a table out there for the old timers to play checkers on, or are they still standing around playing on trashcans??? That's just awful they have been playing on garbage cans for 40years and King Chicken hasn't put some chairs or a table out there for the poor old folks... Unbelievable

[@Animated_Chicken]

Nick Hall NOPE they still on that same trash can. No chairs period 😂

[@eny4life718]

Yup . I was out there in December 2018, and those Ol’ Tymers still out there playing checkers . God bless them
