Buffalo Wild Wings 'beat the buffalo' challenge among free wings, deals for March Madness

If you enjoy slam dunks equally as much as dunking chicken wings into ranch, you're in luck because Buffalo Wild Wings has a slew of deals for its customers during March Madness.

The company said in a news release Monday it is celebrating this year's NCAA basketball tournaments by having a real buffalo named Jack pick a bracket for both the men's and women's tournaments in a promotion the company is calling "Beat the Buffalo."

On March 19, the company will release the buffalo's completed brackets and fans can submit their own brackets to BeatTheBuffalo.com to see how their brackets stack up against Jack's brackets. Submissions for both the men's and women's brackets will close at noon ET on Thursday, March 21, the company said in the news release.

"As the tournament goes on, 10% of the challengers with a better bracket than the buffalo will have a chance to win bragging rights and some amazing prizes – a year's worth of free wings and tickets to next year's Final Four," the news release reads.
