Free lunch from football coach

By: WCIA-3 News

Updated: February 6, 2013

URBANA -- Students at the Illini Union got a surprise Tuesday; free food from the Illini Head Football Coach. Coach Beckman and Illini lineman Corey Lewis showed up at the Illini Union food court and presented each person they met with a coupon for a free Chick-fil-A sandwich.

Students say they were excited about meeting the man behind the Illini. Beckman says he'll be handing out more freebies every Tuesday this month, so if you missed out, you'll have another shot or two.
