Munch Madness XVI

It’s that time of year again: Munch Madness XVI on KLIN, brought to you by the University of Nebraska Federal Credit Union!

Your nominations on Selection Show Friday (February 21st) helped us fill out this year’s Nebraska Sign bracket of 64 local restaurants in Lincoln and the surrounding area! To be included in the bracket, restaurants must be local (originated in Nebraska with at least one location in or within 25 miles of Lincoln) and not considered a “chain” (more than 5 restaurant locations outside of Lincoln).

Voting for Lincoln’s favorite local restaurant will begin on March 12 with new matchups every weekday! Voting matchups are spread out so each restaurant has a chance to be highlighted. View the full voting schedule below the bracket.

Everyone who votes will be entered to win a $50 gift card to one of the Final Fork restaurants! As always, we hope our friendly competition brings some great exposure to many deserving local restaurants.
