Starting with the first preseason game on Aug. 8 and all season long, a Tavern Double Tuesday will be activated every time the Seattle Seahawks score a touchdown from inside the Red Zone (from 20 yards or closer) during a game.  The following Tuesday after the Seattle Seahawks activate, guests at participating Red Robin^® restaurants in Washington, Oregon and Idaho can enjoy a free* Red's Tavern Double^™ burger and Bottomless Steak Fries^™ with purchase.  Red's Tavern Double includes two fire-grilled classic-sized patties, topped with melted American cheese, fresh lettuce, tomato and Red's Secret Tavern Sauce on a toasted sesame bun.  Whether triggered at a home or away game, fans of the Seahawks can celebrate their home team with a visit to their local Northwest Red Robin!

"We're excited to announce our partnership with the Seattle Seahawks to tackle our guests' hunger for fun during the football season," said Denny Marie Post, Red Robin's senior vice president and chief menu & marketing officer.  "We want our guests to cheer for the Seattle Seahawks and root for a Tavern Double Tuesday – nothing goes better with a victory than a free Tavern Double at Red Robin."

Additionally, from Sept. 2 through Nov. 3, Red Robin is adding a new Seahawks-themed gift card to their lineup – a $25 limited edition Red Robin gift card, perfect for sports and Red Robin fans alike.  Guests who purchase this limited edition gift card at participating Red Robin restaurants can enter their gift card code online by Nov. 24 for a chance to win Seahawks home game tickets, autographed memorabilia, and other great prizes. Drawings will take place throughout the season, and Red Robin Royalty^™ members receive double entry into the sweepstakes for every limited edition gift card purchased and registered.  For more information about the partnership and sweepstakes, and to see a list of participating area restaurants, please visit www.redrobin.com/Seahawks.
