Arts/Entertainment
Hot Takes is the hottest live game show in Utah! This family friendly event features a panel of contestants from Utah State University and the community compete for the title of "Extinguisher of the Flame" through mini-games and interview questions while eating hot wings smothered in some of the world's hottest sauces. Audience members directly influence the outcome through their phone! Starting at 6:00pm, support your favorite restaurant in the Hot Takes 2026 Popular Choice Chicken Competition. Purchase $3 Chicken Tickets to redeem chicken samplers from participating local restaurants. Choose from over 60 sauces across mild, medium, and hot spice levels to season your chicken sampler! The restaurant with the most tickets will win the Hot Takes 2026 Popular Choice Chicken Award. The Hot Takes 2026 live game show will begin after the contest! Attendance is FREE and participation in the contest or purchase of Chicken Tickets is not required. 100% of Chicken Ticket proceeds support the Graduate Student Emergency Hardship Fund. Hot Takes is hosted by the School of Graduate Studies, Dining Services, Advancement, and Student Affairs.
