To celebrate his milestone birthday, Lentz’s friends and family gathered at the restaurant for a surprise party organized by Bojangles’ regional manager, Horace Spencer. Lentz was thrilled with the celebration, wearing a Bojangles crown for the occasion.
Spencer shared that Lentz typically visits Bojangles with family and friends from his church, located nearby. His consistent order of the $8 Leg & Thigh meal, which includes two pieces of chicken, two sides, and a biscuit, is always prepared for him ahead of time. Bojangles, which was founded in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1977, now operates over 800 restaurants in 17 states, with a focus on southern-inspired dishes like chicken and biscuits.
