It's called the Chicken Olympics at the Whidbey Island Fair but it's more schtick than athletic feat. During "Chicken On A Stick," MadMat Matt Hoar juggles the rubber version as two compliant Buff Orpingtons belonging to 13-year-old Caelen Coe are foils for the feat. One of the most popular attractions at the annual fair in Langley, there will be three olympian performances a day through Sunday. Buff Orpingtons are an English heritage breed with golden-yellow plumage and bright red combs. For more information see whidbeyislandfair.com
