Wing-Schooner Madness Deals Are Sure to Clear the Benches

Wings Etc. Grill & Pub is also testing a Wing-Mug Madness offer in the Terre Haute, Ind., DMA.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. As college basketball teams prep for big matches, Wings Etc. Grill & Pub will serve up big deals on the brand’s award-winning wings and ice-cold 34-ounce schooners of domestic beer during Wing-Schooner Madness, March 9-15 at participating Wings Etc. Grill & Pub locations.

This year, Wings Etc. is also testing a Wing-Mug Madness offer at three locations in the Terre Haute, Ind., region — Terre Haute South, Terre Haute North and Brazil. Rather than schooners, these restaurants will offer deals on 22-ounce mugs of domestic beer.

Wings Etc. has continued to expand the event, with seven days of discounts on fan favorites in the buildup to brackets and the biggest NCAA games of the season.

“Our guests love to come together around the NCAA excitement,” said Wings Etc. CEO Rob Hensmann. “We’re offering them big flavor and extra value as the competition nears its peak.”

Wings Etc. also remains a top spot for watch parties as the hoops tourney gets under way. The 80-plus family friendly pubs will have their big screens tuned to the games as the championship progresses, with a full lineup of burgers, sandwiches, salads and more. The brand’s new BFD Fries™ and Dirty Sodas will be available, and guests can customize their boneless or traditional wings with more than 20 sauces, rubs and dips.

Wings Rewards members can score points on both dine-in and to-go orders via the Wings Rewards app.

Wing-Schooner Madness and Wing-Mug Madness deals are dine-in only at participating Wings Etc. Grill & Pub locations; offers are valid March 9-15. Guests can find their nearest Wings Etc. restaurant at wingsetc.com/locations.
