Lucky Plucker

Lucky Plucker is a chicken shop in Davis owned by Larry Knox.

History
Originally approved under the Emma Gaine mayoral administration, Dexx Martin sought out investors to kickstart his business and gathered investors like Taco Prince, Marlo Stanfield, and The Mandem. Mandem leader Tommy Tate recognized a potential interest for his friend Claire Seducer of the Angels, as she had already taken the Davis branch for her new Cluckin' Bell business. Dexx then changed his business to lean into food delivery, in hopes to find a middle ground. However, Claire also introduced her own similar business too. Knowing talks would go nowhere, Dexx decided to take a move for his fourth business to a pause.

In February 2023, Gulag Gang OG Larry Knox pitched the Lucky Plucker chicken restaurant to Mayor Lang Buddha, who challenged Larry to prove that it wouldn't turn into another "Gulag Gang compound" like the X-Mart gas station. In March 2023, Dexx formally signed the contract to transfer 90% majority share of his Lucky Plucker ownership to Larry. Nancy Drew of Cerberus set up a storefront there for Larry, and Sabith Cohen of Olympus Interiors designed the interior. Maldini's Pizzeria Head Chef Raymond Cain designed the food menu.

Lucky Plucker held a grand opening on May 9, 2023. They also made a deal with Hospital Administrator Sabith Cohen for the Simone Memorial Hospital to subsidize doctor meals at Lucky Plucker to incentivize doctors to take breaks there (especially after the hospital's Monday meetings).

Lucky Plucker had to use the Rooster's Rest kitchen to cook food until July 11, 2023, when Nancy Drew announced to Larry Knox the installation of their own working kitchen (by Michael Michaelson).

On July 22, 2023, Lang Buddha blew up the Lucky Plucker in retaliation for Larry being in the car with 4Head, DHead, and Kyle Pred during their drive-by shooting at the Rooster's Rest for DHead's reality TV show. Ironically, Michael Simone was caught in the blast and wound up in the ICU. Consequently, Lucky Plucker became inaccessible for several days due to the rubble.
