KFC President Issues YouTube Apology, Offers Raincheck

May 8 2009 - 1:00pm

Oprah's KFC promotion for a free Kentucky Grilled Chicken meal has not only caused a lot of controversy [1], but sky-high demand also has KFC stores across the country turning away customers. In response, KFC president Roger Eaton has taken a strikingly similar approach to Domino's [2] by issuing an apology to patrons via YouTube. In exchange for the inconvenience customers have gone through, Eaton offers a raincheck for a grilled chicken meal, plus a free Pepsi [3].

Do you think Eaton did the right thing? I question whether customers who've already redeemed the free chicken will simply cash in on more gratis grub. Will you redeem KFC's raincheck offer?
