Starting May 21st and running through May 27th,\u00a0 Portillo’s is hosting what’s being called the Rhyme Time Challenge. Known the city-over for the rhymes staff members chorus during service (read: “Number 9, it’s time to dine!”), the chain now invites fans to create their own rhymes and submit them here<\/a> for a chance to win.<\/p>\n

The rules are simple: all submitted rhymes must end with a number 0-9, must not contain any ~inappropriate~ language, and, of course, can’t already be a rhyme used by the Portillo’s staff.<\/p>\n

After the challenge closes on this coming Sunday, the\u00a0first-place winner will receive free Portillo\u2019s food for a year and their rhyme will be\u00a0used by employees in all Portillo\u2019s restaurants nationwide. Not to be outdone, a second-place winner will get a swag bag complete with a $25 gift card, which honestly, could also last you a pretty long time.<\/p>\n

In addition to the competition, Chicagoans can also purchase two Italian beef sandwiches for just $10 bucks throughout Italian Beef Week.<\/p>\n
