The Virginia Cavaliers, seeded No. 1 for the South conference of the NCAA bracket, evaporated from the roster and ruined brackets everywhere with their 20-point loss to UMBC.
Despite last month's heartbreak of a broken bracket, Little Caesars hopes UVA fans have mustered up an appetite for some humble pie.
The nationwide chain will honor its pizza promise at all chains nationwide today.
From 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. can customers pick up a free Hot-N-Ready lunch combo (normally $5, one per family) as long as they place the order before 1 p.m. The offer is available while supplies last at participating stores. The lunch combo consists of a 4-slice, deep-dish pepperoni pizza and a Pepsi product of your choice.
Even a Virginia fan might agree, defeat has never tasted so good.
