Our listeners have the opportunity to win Pirate game tickets throughout the summer.

The 1480 WCNS Chick-Fil-A Challenge!

Join us in 2013 for Pirate Baseball on 1480 WCNS--and the Chick-Fil-A Challenge! Throughout the regular season, listen during the game when we will announce the scrambled letters.  Find the word related to baseball hidden in the scramble.  When you solve the challenge, call in.  If you're the first caller with the correct answer, you win a 64-piece chicken nugget platter valued at $24, enough for a family! And you'll be eligible for a drawing to win four tickets to see a Pirates game at PNC Park.  Only one winner per household per season. Nugget platter redeemable at Chick-Fil-A locations in the Eastgate Center, Westmoreland Mall and the Greengate Center. 

Recent Challenge Winners: WCNS congratulates these recent Chick-fil-a Challenge winners for 2013: David Krinock, Paula Kellf, Don Polinsky, Dennis Myers Sr., John Hovance, Pete Fennell, Karen Conley, Mary Louise Peer, Denny Myers Jr., and Rick Burger.  Good Luck to our 2013 Pirate Baseball listeners and potential winners of our Chick-Fil-A Challenge joining us for another exciting season of live coverage of the Pittsburgh Pirates on 1480 WCNS!
