Hours after launching a promotional chicken wing delivery deal, KFC has sold out of "seasoned tickets."
The Louisville-based company announced the promotion on Tuesday morning, which allowed consumers to receive a delivery of 48 made-to-order Kentucky Fried Wings to their homes every week for 10 weeks.
A seasoned ticket package cost $75, and buyers will receive an extra 48 wings on the 10th week. Wings can also be picked up in stores, if preferred.
KFC partnered with ticket marketplace StubHub for this deal and advised potential buyers to go to StubHub.com/KFC. But when one follows the link, they receive a message saying that there are no more tickets available.
"No tickets...now what?" the website reads. "We’re all out of KFC Seasoned Tickets. But you can still follow your chicken wing-based dreams to order.kfc.com."

It is unclear how many tickers were sold and if KFC plans to sell more. Representatives from KFC did not immediately reply to a request for comment from The Courier Journal, which is part of the USA TODAY Network.
This promotion comes one week after the fried chicken behemoth unveiled its new Kentucky Fried Wing product.
Flavors include classic (no sauce), Nashville Hot, Buffalo or Honey BBQ. Outside of the seasoned ticket package, the wings start at $5 for six, going all the way up to 48 wings for $36.99.
According to KFC, Americans devour chicken wings. Earlier this year, the National Chicken Council projected Americans would eat more than 1.3 billion chicken wings – just during the Super Bowl.
