Fast-casual restaurant concept Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers® announced a partnership awarding Name, Image and Likeness deals to twelve collegiate athletes in Kansas, Texas, Tennessee and North Carolina. Freddy’s will partner with the athletes to share their menu favorites on social media channels and the brand’s website.
“Growing up with Freddy’s right around the corner, when the opportunity came to work with them, I was thrilled as I had a lot of nights eating frozen custard and steakburgers after practice,” says Mark Mitchell, Duke University Forward.
Freddy’s is showcasing male and female collegiate athletes excelling in basketball and baseball. While some of the athletes are new to the growing brand, others frequented the restaurant after practices and games.
“My dad and I used to go to Freddy’s all the time after tournaments. I love the chili cheese dog and even ordered one today! I’m just so excited to be working with Freddy’s this season,” says KJ Adams Jr., University of Kansas Forward.
