Caleb Williams may not have been on hand to get one of the free hot dogs from the Wieners Circle he helped bring to fruition, but he sent someone special in his place.
His dog, Supa.
The Bears posted on X “The Supa-visor is here,” showing a photo of Williams’ beloved dog in line at the iconic Chicago hot dog stand, which was giving away thousands of hot dogs Tuesday thanks to Williams’ four touchdowns last weekend.
Fans waited for hours, with lines stretching down blocks as thousands waited for their free treat.
The promise from the famous hot dog joint, known for its food and snarky attitude, came Friday, when the store posted on social media that if Williams threw four touchdowns against the Cowboys, free hot dogs would be served up Tuesday.
Moments after Williams threw his fourth touchdown in Sunday’s game, the restaurant posted a hilarious response, calling for beef backup.
By Monday afternoon, deliveries with dozens of boxes of brand new Vienna Beef hot dogs were seen being carted into the restaurant.
According to a release, longtime Chicago bakery and Wieners Circle bun supplier S. Rosen’s said it was partnering with the hot dog joint to help out with the poppy seed buns.
On a typical Tuesday, The Wieners Circle sells about 400 dogs, Manager Evelyn Morris told NBC Chicago’s Patrick Fazio. For the giveaway, they ordered ten times that amount, Fazio said.
