Madness at Players Retreat: Half-Off (or Free!) Wolfpack Burgers for the ACC Tournament

The ACC brackets are out, the Pack is headed to the tournament, and we’re kicking off a new game-day ritual at the Players Retreat. There’s nowhere better to catch a noon tip-off than surrounded by fellow fans with a messy, classic burger in hand.

The Pack Plays, You Eat

This Wednesday, March 11, 2026, the NC State men’s basketball team takes the court at noon. To celebrate, we’re featuring our legendary Wolfpack Burger—that classic Southern masterpiece topped with mustard, chili, and coleslaw on a toasted Union Special bun—for 50% off from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The “Double Digit” Bonus

We believe in this team. If the Pack wins by 10 points or more, your Wolfpack Burger is FREE.

The Fine Print:

  • The half-price window: You can get the Wolfpack Burger for half price as long as your order is in by 2 p.m. sharp. (No, 2:05 doesn’t count. Don’t blame us, blame the shot clock!)
  • The free burger deadline: To qualify for a FREE burger (if State wins by 10+), your order must be placed before the start of the second half. Once that second-half whistle blows, the free offer is off the table!
  • Dine-in only: You’ve gotta be here to feel the energy.
  • The encore: If State advances and plays Thursday, March 12, 2026, (also at noon), we’re doing the whole thing all over again.

Grab an extra stack of napkins and a cold pint. Let’s show them why there’s no place like Raleigh.

Go Pack!
