Hell Raiser

A trouble-seeking, aggressive person, who can -and does- turn any social situation into an argument, and, subsequently, a fight. Used as an adjective or a noun -for stereotyping purposes- this word could apply to any potential troublemaker.

Sometimes the term is applied to people who purposefully pick on other people seeking for a violent reaction, and the term could be exchanged with the word bully.
That dude is a hell raiser, he just stepped into the bar, started picking on random dudes and suddenly there was a massive fight going on.

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
