Good morning,
In light of the NCAA Basketball Tournament kicking off this week, one Twitter user has decided to orchestrate a March Madness of his own — one involving chicken tenders.
Since Friday, Twitter user @JP_Flash25 has been posting Twitter polls tied to a March Madness-style tournament bracket to determine the restaurant with the best chicken tenders.

Several local favorites are included in the bracket, including Miller’s Chicken, Wings Over Athens and Larry’s Dawg House (•although those restaurants did not make it into the semifinals).
Voting for the championship matchup between Buffalo Wild Wings and Chick-fil-A opens at 2 p.m. Tuesday, per @JP_Flash25.
