Hockey fans can kick up the heat with a free burrito when the Edmonton Oilers face off against the Los Angeles Kings for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Monday.

Chipotle is offering a spicy buy-one-get-one (BOGO) deal when fans sporting hockey jerseys dine in at their restaurant locations. The promotional event starts after 3 p.m. local time.

“Our Hockey Jersey BOGO offer (is) back for the fifth consecutive year,” said Chief Brand Officer Chris Brandt in a press release. “(It) has become a yearly tradition to kick off the Stanley Cup Playoffs and celebrate hockey in the U.S. and Canada.”

Fans must wear a hockey jersey and place an order in-store for an entree of equal or greater value to get the playoff perk.
