The first 100 dine-in Combos purchased will receive a commemorative hat and a Free Box Combo card, valid on a future visit. Limit one hat and card per Combo purchased—while supplies last.

A check presentation ceremony to Four Footed Friends, a local no-kill animal shelter at approximately 9:40 a.m. In honor of the brand’s namesake, a yellow lab named Cane, Raising Cane’s is proud to support pet welfare organizations such as Four Footed Friends who will have adoptable dogs at the grand opening.

Performances by the Indiana High School band and dance squad.

“Raising Cane’s got our start outside of the North Gates of LSU over 28 years ago and we’re excited our Louisiana culture and Chicken Fingers has made its way to the steps of Indiana University of Pennsylvania’s campus with the debut of our new Restaurant,” said Area Leader of Restaurants, Dan Moscovich. “We’ve been building our presence in the Pittsburgh area over the last several years and we are eager to meet the growing demand and serve our fans here in western Pennsylvania.”

Raising Canes will also host an IUP celebration on August 28 with more giveaways and someone will win free Cane’s for a year.
