In celebration of March Madness, global chicken chain Wingstop has released three new tournament-themed wing flavors for watching sports tournaments. The new flavors consist of 'Pure Mayhem,' 'Crunch Time,' and 'Meltdown.' As for the inspiration, the flavors were inspired by the watching experience of sports fans.
The 'Pure Mayhem' flavor has a sweet-and-savory taste in contrast to Wingstop's classic chicken flavor. The 'Crunch Time' flavor is a combination of the fan-favorite 'Honey Rub' and 'Lemon Pepper,' which has a sweet honey and lemon taste. The 'Meltdown' is a different take on Wingstop's 'Garlic Parmesan' dip, which contains garlic, parmesan, and Cajun seasonings. The new 'Full Court Meal' has 12 classic wings, eight boneless wings, and a large fry with two dips. All three flavors and the 'Full Court Meal' are available until April 3.
