Hunt for the Golden Bulls – Through March 31 – Bull City Burger and Brewery began releasing clues for its 13th annual scavenger hunt inspired by the golden tickets from the film “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.” Throughout the month, clues and puzzles will be revealed on social media and online. The clues, once deciphered, lead participants to public spaces around Durham where a golden bull has been carefully hidden. Winners of each of the five Golden Bulls receive a free pasture-raised beef burger or veggie burger, fries and a drink each week for a year. Teams are encouraged to participate, but only one member of each team can redeem a Golden Bull.
