If No. 1 Seed Cardinals Win National Title, UofL Students Will
Enjoy Free Original Recipe® Boneless
It’s no secret who Kentucky Fried Chicken is pulling for in this year’s
national basketball tournament championship. With KFC headquarters
located in Louisville, Ky., and the University of Louisville’s
basketball team calling the KFC Yum! Center its home court, the brand
famous for its fried chicken will be rooting for the Cardinals.
In fact, if the Cardinals bring home the big trophy after Monday night’s
game, or if the UofL women’s team pulls another big upset in the
championship game on Tuesday, KFC will feed University of Louisville
students for free at a restaurant near campus on Monday, April 15,
during select hours. The students will be among the first in the country
to enjoy a free piece of KFC’s new Original Recipe® Boneless chicken, a
side item, a biscuit and a drink. After all, the celebration’s more fun
if someone else picks up the tab.
“At KFC, we’ve been pulling hard for the Cards as they continue their
march to the title,” said Jason Marker, Chief Marketing Officer for KFC
Corporation. “And we think celebrating a championship with UofL students
would be a great opportunity to celebrate the launch of our new Original
Recipe Boneless at the same time. Everybody wins!”
Should either Louisville team win the championship, KFC will provide
free Original Recipe Boneless meals to UofL students at a restaurant
near campus on Monday, April 15. Complete details about the giveaway,
including location and time, will be posted on www.kfc.com
and www.facebook.com/kfc
on Tuesday, April 9. See www.kfc.com/about/UofLterms.asp
for additional information.
