A yet-to-be identified woman went viral on TikTok after her video of hopping behind the counter at a Church’s Texas Chicken (formerly Church’s Chicken) and helping herself to as many pieces of fried chicken as she could carry hit social media. Whether the video is stated or genuine, the woman has managed to spark a mini firestorm online, with many viewers calling the stunt less of a prank and more of a public audition for embarrassment.
