This is a festival held every year at the second weekend of July, in the small town of Wayne, Nebraska, in the United States. Inaugurated in the distant 1981, today the Festival, even though it was not stormed by hordes of tourists, managed to attract the curiosity of people even outside its limited boundaries; including myself. The reason? Undoubtedly it is the fact of being a kitsch event, at the limits of the trash, with the chicken (and the hen) real center, navel of the city.
