WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — The Wichita Wind Surge will play as the “Wichita Chili Buns” this weekend.

The name change honors the staple of Midwest school cafeterias: chili and cinnamon rolls. The team will don cream-colored hats with a crimson brim adorned with the logo of a bowl of chili, and a cinnamon roll with the same symbol will be on the left sleeve of the jersey.

In addition, the concession will be serving cups of chili with a cinnamon roll on the side. The Wind Surge says there will also be several special promotions that weekend that pair with the food.
