A KFC restaurant in Winnipeg’s West End is bringing the whiteout to a new level and paying homage to Jets’ forward Kyle Connor.
The restaurant, located at 1275 Portage Avenue, has rebranded with new signs displaying a cartoon version of Connor, who’s referred to as KFC in tongue-in-cheek chants.
KFC has also created buckets with cartoon Connor’s face on them; however, the image is upside down so fans can wear them as bucket hats.
The Winnipeg Jets are set to face off against the Dallas Stars on Friday night for Game 2 of the series. Puck drop is scheduled for 8:30 p.m.
