We thought it would be fun to Power Rank SWLA Fried Chicken joints.  For me, fried chicken needs to have the delicate balance of crispy skin and at the same time be slightly greasy, plus the meat needs to be juicy.

92.9 The Lake's Sports Director and Weather Liason Patrick Frey joins us today to rank his favorite fried chicken spots.
