Did the Sixers Season Turn on Chicken Nuggets? Well, it’s official. The 76ers are in the playoffs. During the second half of a playoff play-in game this week against the Miami Heat and the once-loved Jimmy Butler, the last gasp for a 76ers team clinging to the last ray of hope for a team that has convinced itself and the City of Philadelphia that a title is within reach. So, was it flawless outside shooting, a huge advantage in offensive rebounding, or a decisive advantage in the turnover battle?  Nope. Amid a double-digit deficit in the second half, something in the Wells Fargo Center gave fans a reason to cheer besides the Sixers. After Miami Heat’s Caleb Martin missed two free throws — the Chik-Fil-A “Brickin for Chicken.” Here’s how it works.

The first time the consecutive miss happens, you get a free five-piece chicken nugget. The second time, it grows to an eight-piece. If a third time happens in the second half, you’ll get a 12-piece the day after. The Philadelphia area market includes seventy-four Chick-fil-A restaurants in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. Each restaurant is individually franchised. According to the Sixers Page on NBA.com, 780,928 have been given out. That is a lot of chicken.  If the Sixers are successful during the home game playoffs at the Wells Fargo Center, the Delaware Valley will be feasting on a lot of chicken nuggets this spring. Hope you are hungry, Philly. Photo: — The post Chik-Fil-A 780,928, Sixers 105. appeared first on Philadelphia Sports Nation.
