Does your city deserve a visit from Santa? That's what KFC is asking its fans this holiday season.
The chain, in promotion of KFC's Festive Feast, a 12-piece meal, wants fans to express why their town deserves a visit from KFC's "So Good" Secret Santa, who is actually a lookalike of the iconic Colonel Sanders.
On Dec. 21, the winning city will participate in a scavenger hunt for mini KFC buckets that were hidden by the "So Good" Santa. Each hidden bucket contains cash gift cards of various amounts. The monetary gift cards add up to more than $20,000.
"In the spirit of Colonel Sanders' generous legacy, KFC will be making the holidays a little more festive for one city that needs it," said John Cywinski, chief marketing and food innovation officer for KFC. "Those who remember the Colonel know that bringing joy to people coast-to-coast was one of his favorite things to do — and it's something that we aim to do not only for the holidays, but year-round."
Fans can nominate their city by e-mailing KFCSoGoodHoliday@gmail.com, or through KFC's Facebook and Twitter pages. The winning city will be announced via these social media outlets in the morning on Dec. 21.
The KFC's Festive Feast is features 12 pieces of juicy Original Recipe or Kentucky Grilled chicken, three sides and six buttermilk biscuits for $19.99. Prices may vary by location and an extra charge for breast piece substitutions.
