With three options to choose from, the NEW! MVP Dip Lineup brings the flavor assist that takes every bite to the next level. Fans can choose from the NEW! Strip Dip – creamy, tangy, with a bold black pepper kick perfect for dipping chicken – NEW! Ghost Pepper Dip – fiery, bold, smoky pepper heat – or our classic House-made Hidden Valley® Ranch, made on-site at every DQ restaurant, every day.

To celebrate the Chicken Strip Basket deal and NEW! MVP Dip Lineup, DQ is teaming up with mascots at the University of Oregon, Illinois State University and University of Kansas for a fun social campaign.

“Football brings together passionate fans, spirited rivalries and traditions that make every game memorable, and we’re excited to add to that energy with new and popular returning flavors from DQ at a great value,” said Becky Felling, Vice President of Marketing at American Dairy Queen Corporation (ADQ). “With our $6.99 Chicken Strip Basket offering and NEW! MVP Dip Lineup, we’re giving fans even more ways to enjoy the season while having a little fun with an engaging campaign that taps into the enthusiasm and personalities that create special moments for teams, friends, families and everyone following along.”

The playful spots, including the first video, which is now live on DQ social channels, put The Duck, Reggie Redbird and Big Jay bird mascots in the spotlight as they react to fans’ growing enthusiasm for the DQ Chicken Strip Basket and the NEW! MVP Dip Lineup, proving the new dips and deal may be enough to ruffle a few feathers this season.

“The Duck is one of the most recognizable personalities in college sports, known for bringing infectious energy, humor and an unmistakable presence to every game day experience,” said Kelly Schukart, Vice President and General Manager at Oregon Sports Properties. “Partnering with Dairy Queen on this Chicken Strip Basket and NEW!
