Wendy's Tears Hardee's To Shreds During Twitter Battle Royale
Sometimes there is nothing better than a good ol' fashion showdown. Although gunslinging was how [...]
Followers immediately pounced on the conversation and started commentating on how Wendy's was going so hard against Hardee's. Honestly, it is shocking to see a global brand like this not give one rip and just go for it. But all we have to say is "well played, PR team."
@Wendys @jstaff15 @phelps_ryan @Hardees shiiit two social media jobs go head on! Mr/Ms Wendy's PR, you get to keep your job another day ?

As the conversation carried on, things definitely "got real" and fans could not get enough of it.
And come on Hardee's, there HAS to be a "deez nuts" joke in here somewhere. A little over the line for a brand to tweet? Probably. But hey, Wendy's decided to go for it... so can you.
@Wendys @jstaff15 @phelps_ryan @Hardees shit gettin real

There have been some seriously bizarre things to come from the fast food industries -- Burger King's Cheeto macaroni snacks being a biggie -- but this social media battle to the death ranks up there at the top.

As Wendy's continued to go "straight savage" on their competitor, the conversation got blown up so much on social media that other companies decided they wanted to join the party as well.

WILD CARD! Checker's and Rally's popped into the conversation to have the final combo-breaker of the conversation. So this went from Wendy's playfully tagging Hardee's to Hardee's blocking them to Checker's and Rally's dropping in for a quick glove slap. Mark this Twitter feud under your favorites, it is definitely worth revisiting.
prev@rosstronot It's actually 4 for $3 but you do you. Some like spending more.
