"Every year we receive hundreds of stories from across Craver Nation about memorable moments made in our restaurants or during adventures to feed the crave for our steam-grilled-on-a-bed-of-onions Sliders," said Jamie Richardson, vice president of White Castle. "From Hollywood stars to New York City firefighters who detoured to a White Castle during the New York City Marathon in honor of a fallen friend, we honor the best Craver Nation has to offer."

Cravers can submit original stories about their relationship with White Castle and why White Castle is meaningful to them at http://www.whitecastle.com/cravers/hall-of-fame/new. Stories are evaluated for originality, duration and extent of the "Crave." Official rules are available at www.whitecastle.com/cravers/hall-of-fame-rules. Winning Cravers will be invited to Columbus, Ohio, to attend the Hall of Fame induction ceremony in October.
