Little Caesars is home to the $5 pizza, and now, free lunch!
For the past few years, the pizza company has offered free lunch IF a 16-seed team beat a No. 1-seed team in the NCAA basketball tournament.
It has never happened before, but.. It looks like the day has finally come! On Friday, University of Maryland took out the number 1 seed team, Virginia, 74-54.
On Monday, April 2nd, EVERYONE in the country will get a FREE lunch combo from Little Caesars! Of course, there are a few rules to follow. The giveaway will only happen from 11:30 a.m. until 1 p.m., and is limited to one per family. And make sure you call your local Little Caesars before hand to check if they are participating.
“We were pretty surprised,” Jill Proctor, a spokeswoman for Little Caesars, said Monday. But she added, “We wouldn’t do the promotion if we didn’t think there was some chance it would happen someday, so I guess why not this year?”
“We’re thrilled that it happened actually because we’re really excited for all the hype and enthusiasm that this has generated for our brand,” she said. “A lot of people, even though they know about Little Caesars, they don’t know about our lunch combo as much as we’d like them to. So we’re hoping to generate a little more exposure for this lunch deal.”
In case you’ve been under a 🗿the last couple of days 😝…because a #16 made history and beat a #1 team, everyone in America gets a FREE #LittleCaesars Lunch Combo on Monday, April 2nd!!
