AHEAD OF ‘STRANGER THINGS’ SEASON 3, BURGER KING DEBUTS THE ‘UPSIDE DOWN WHOPPER’
By Sara Shaw • June 14, 2019The third season of Netlfix’s “Stranger Things” is dropping on July 4, and brands have been jumping in to help promote the show. Coca-Cola, for example, took the opportunity to resurrect its failed ‘80s product, New Coke, and now, Burger King is introducing a themed burger—the Upside Down Whopper. It’s just what its name says, a Whopper served upside down (but at least it comes in “Stranger Things”-themed box).
The Upside Down Whopper will be available beginning on June 21 in select markets, including L.A., San Francisco, New York, Miami, Boston, Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Chicago. Some stores will also have “Stranger Things” crowns, ketchup packets, tees and pins.
