Whataburger anniversary events in Corpus Christi, Texas
While the 75-cent burger is available in many states, the main celebration will be happening in Corpus Christi, the brand’s hometown.
On August 8, Whataburger is hosting a special game night at Whataburger Field. The Corpus Christi Hooks (AA affiliate of the Houston Astros) will be playing the Tulsa Drillers (AA affiliate of the LA Dodgers).
What makes it extra fun? The Hooks will be taking the field under a temporary new name: the Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits—in honor of one of Whataburger’s most popular menu items.
If you attend the game, you will also receive:
- A free coupon for Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits
- A Whataguy cape or mask if you arrive early
What Whataburger’s CEO said about the 75th birthday
This 75th anniversary is not just about food. It is about celebrating with customers who have made the brand what it is today.
In a press release on July 24, Whataburger President and CEO Debbie Stroud said:
“This anniversary is our way of saying thank you. Thank you for your trust, your loyalty, and for letting us be part of your table.”
She also added,
“As we celebrate this milestone, we’re not just marking time—we’re honoring the memories, the traditions, and the quality experiences that keep folks coming back.”
Will there be other anniversary items?
Yes. Starting August 5, Whataburger is also releasing the second collection of its limited-edition Commemorative Cups.
These cups are usually collector favorites and are expected to go fast.
