Method: There was a separate dining room where the study took place with a big-screen TV to watch the game. During the game, wings were provided free of charge. The tables were randomly assigned to condition. In the bussed condition the bones left over from the wings were regularly and continually removed from the table. In the unbussed condition, the residual bones were left on the plates on the table. Participants in both conditions were periodically encouraged to get more wings. At half-time, the bones from both tables were weighted and counted.
