Lexington-based Fazoli's is showing support for its city by teaming up with University of Kentucky all-star freshman point guard, Tyrone "TyTy" Washington Jr. The brand will use his name, image and likeness in its first-ever NCAA sponsorship. The freshman from Phoenix is a consensus five-star recruit and one of the top point guards in the 2021 class, said Fazoli's CEO Carl Howard.

"College basketball is more than just a sport in Kentucky — it's a lifestyle," he said in a company press release. "Fazoli's has a longstanding history in Lexington, so it's a no-brainer that we unite with a talented Wildcat like TyTy for our first NIL partnership in our hometown. We're thrilled to give the Big Blue Nation even more to cheer for this basketball season by featuring TyTy's go-to Fazoli's Favorite —classic, craveable Fettuccine Alfredo, an Arnold Palmer, and of course, our famous breadsticks."

Through the partnership, Fazoli's and Wildcat fans may enjoy the beginning of college basketball season with the TyTy Trio. Available at participating Lexington-area locations now through Dec. 19, the offering includes a regular Chicken Fettucine Alfredo, a small half-iced tea and half-lemonade and two breadsticks for $9.99.

Fazoli's owns and operates nearly 220 restaurants in 27 states.
