Red Robin Passes Are Harder to Get Than Taylor Swift Tickets
The only thing worse than having a kid who loves Taylor Swift is having another kid who's obsessed with Red Robin.
Last week, Red Robin announced that they were selling "Bottomless Burger Passes," which would get you a burger and a bottomless side every day of the month of May for only $20, total.
Well, as expected, they sold out INSTANTLY. And even worse, their website crashed, so many people weren't even able to get the satisfaction of seeing that they were too late.
A few people who DID get through were mistakenly charged $682 . . . the maximum value of the promotion. Those charges have since been reversed.
Red Robin never said how many of the passes they were selling, only that there were a "limited" number that would go "quickly."
Some fans were frustrated, and vented on social media. One said, "I spent literally an hour refreshing for the burger pass, what incredible incompetence."
Someone else said, "It was literally easier to get tickets to Taylor Swift than it is to get a Red Robin burger pass."
Red Robin did apologize for the site going down, saying, "We did everything we could to anticipate interest in the Bottomless Burger Pass . . . but due to overwhelming excitement, our website and supporting systems crashed."
They're also hyping another sweepstakes that offers free burgers for a YEAR. They've posted details about that on their site . . . which is back up . . . but there will only be 12 winners, so that's like Taylor Swift V.I.P. tickets.
Speaking of chain restaurant promotions, Buffalo Wild Wings is doing another dine-in, "all-you-can-eat" boneless wings promotion on weekdays.
It isn't free . . . it costs $20 . . . but if you can eat 20+ wings, this is at least a 25% discount. The only rule is NO SHARING, so maybe you could sit there all day and eat all your meals there.
