Whether or not you are interested in college basketball, you might be interested in following at least some of the results of this year’s tournament. That’s because Buffalo Wild Wings does so every time a March Madness game goes into overtime give away free wings. Here’s what you need to know about this sporting promotion and how to get your hands on a free chicken.
How to get free wings
The concept is pretty simple: when a March Madness game goes into overtime, you have the opportunity to land some free boned wings. To make this opportunity a reality, one must first become one Blazin ‘Rewards Memberif you are not already. If a March Madness game is working overtime, you must check-in at a Buffalo Wild Wings or place an online order through the Blazin ‘Rewards program within 30 minutes of the end of the game.
But wait. What if you’ve already checked in to a BWW to watch the game, or placed an order through Blazin ‘Rewards to enjoy while playing basketball, and then an NCAA tournament matchup goes into overtime? Don’t worry: six free boneless wings will be delivered to your Blazin ‘Rewards account the next day.
G / O Media can receive a commission
The last game of March Madness is April 5th. So there are a few weeks of this grand piano promotion to look forward to. Of course, you are not required to watch the basketball. However, since you have to take action within 30 minutes of the end of the game, you should set up some sort of message alert on your phone. Or you could ask someone you know is watching the games to text you if a game is working overtime (as long as they don’t mind).
What are the chances of getting some free basketball wings? After math in a statement from Buffalo Wild Wings: “There have been an average of nearly four OT games in the last 10 NCAA tournaments.”
