Depending on whom you ask, frog legs taste like an amphibious version of chicken wings or something else entirely. You’ll likely get a variety of opinions from the 800 men at the Aug. 1 dinner at St. Anthony’s Lodge & Swim Club in Downingtown. As part of a 90-year tradition, they’ll wash down 6,500 sets of deep-fried frog legs with plenty of beer.

Earning a mention in Guinness World Records, the more raucous frog leg dinners often lasted as late as 2 a.m. under floodlights, with Frank Sinatra blaring over the loudspeakers.
