Weโd foolishly thought weโd witnessed the very pinnacle of dirty bird-related crossovers with the KFC hotel and the KFC degustation, but this KFC pub โ dubbed The Colonelโs Arm โ has got us 11 sorts of stoked (and we ainโt keeping our sheer excitement a secret).
For one week only, KFC is inviting dedicated disciples of the fried arts to do what they love best within its interpretation of the traditional British pub: sit around, have a pint, watch some football, and wait for their order of the Colonelโs finest to arrive hot โnโ fresh straight to the table, ready to be tucked into.

โKFC has been working round the cluck to deliver the finger-lickinโ greatest pub in town,โ explains the pun-rich event description.
โFilled with features to fry for โ from a ring for KFC Delivery bell and screens galore to watch the footy โ to Colonel-approved beer and free gravy (baby), you can rest assured this pubโs got just the right amount of zing.โ
โThe Colonel brings his Southern fried charm to this British classic.โ
Given both the anticipated demand and the need to keep a lid on numbers, this once-in-a-lifetime experience will be ticketed. The price of admission also covers a healthy plate of crispy chook as well as a free drink.
The description adds: โFor those who do prefer to wing it, most games will also have spots open for walk-ins and tickets on the door. For those wanting a table, you better flock to the pub quickly as these are allocated on a first come first served basis. But fear not, everyone with tickets will get a seat.โ
There is, however, a morsel of bad newsโฆ

Sadly, this ticketed activation is strictly limited to those who reside in the United Kingdom. More specifically, punters around 80 Fulham Palace Road, Hammersmith (London).
But perhaps Australiaโs KFC Chief Marketing Officer will see how much domestic dirty bird fanatics make Down Under and present something similar. Anythingโs possible, my brethren.
