Raising Cane’s celebrates 30th anniversary with star-studded Super Bowl week

To celebrate its 30th birthday, Raising Cane’s pulled off perhaps its most epic celebrity get-together in San Francisco for Super Bowl week.

With partners like Christian McCaffrey working a shift early in Super Bowl week, to Matthew Stafford and his family chowing down some chicken tenders almost immediately after winning his first Super Bowl, the party was on for owner and founder Todd Graves.

“Time flies, right? This is all I’ve done my whole adult life. And the best part about it is, same menu for 30 years, same crew, same culture, same vibe, same great people,” Graves said to Fox Business from the San Francisco Proper, where he hosted A-list celebrities.

Stars including Alix Earle, Jessica Alba, Emma Roberts, Machine Gun Kelly, Cardi B, Logan Paul, and more joined Graves for the can’t-miss Super Bowl weekend in San Francisco, spanning a full hotel takeover and a series of standout events. The weekend kicked off with an exclusive pre-party at Charmaine’s Saturday night, followed by a pre-Super Bowl brunch at Villon Sunday morning, culminating with guests experiencing the Big Game from Todd Graves’ custom Raising Cane’s suites at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.

Graves realized long ago that sports could be the perfect opportunity to get celebrities of all types in the same room in order to build relationships.

“Before I was in business, we live and die by football season,” Graves, a Georgia alum turned die-hard fan, said. “It’s like, hey, football season’s coming. My son’s like, X amount of days till it comes, and when it’s done.

CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY REFLECTS ON 2025 SUCCESS AFTER INJURY-PLAGUED 2024 SEASON: ‘JUST THANK GOD’

“But when I opened up in the north gates of LSU, it was in August, opened up during football season, so it was tying into coming to Canes before the game, coming to Canes after the game. Just those game days were just slammed Friday night before everybody’s fired up. Being tied into that emotion, it was something I wanted to tap into, that energy of football, that energy of sports.”

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold will work a shift to celebrate his Super Bowl title, adding to the list of celebrities Graves has gotten to work with.

“I like to be part of big events, pop culture, things that are going on immediately, sports being one of those. It’s having people that are Caniacs, having people that I respect,” Graves said. “I meet people and learn from people. So for me, I’m constantly around business, but if I can be around performers, actors, athletes, learn from them in a different way – success is success, but there’s different ways to go about it, and it really motivates me.”

“Everybody had a great time and I got to build relationships. I brought different people together from different walks of life, different industries, and everybody had a good time, learned from each other, and created long-term friendships,” Graves added. “So for me, I watch the game, but I get to sit next to so-and-so, and then I get to walk around, and talk to so-and-so. The parties, all those things, everybody had a good time, created great relationships, and we get a good marketing return.”

Nashville suburb sees growth from manufacturing, affordable housing market

Nashville suburb sees growth from manufacturing, affordable housing market

A suburb near Nashville, Tennessee, is in the midst of a boom amid an influx of higher-paying tech and trade jobs.

report by Realtor.com found that Clarksville, located about 45 minutes outside of Nashville, is drawing in residents in part because of several manufacturing firms setting up shop in the area and lower housing prices.

The median listing price for a house in Clarksville is $357,950, whereas the median list price in Nashville is $527,225 – which represents a potential savings of about 32.1%.

Housing demand is expected to remain strong in the area. Realtor’s report noted that T.RAD, an auto parts manufacturer headquartered in Japan, opted to build a new plant in the area while Korea Zinc is expanding its footprint there as well.

T.RAD’s Clarksville manufacturing facility is the first location in Tennessee for the company’s North American division. It plans to invest $90.2 million in a manufacturing facility that’s projected to create 928 jobs in the next few years.

Korea Zinc currently has about 300 existing jobs in the area and is also expanding with at least 420 direct positions, while also supporting additional jobs through suppliers and other economic activity. 

Workers filling the new roles are expected to earn income in a range between $86,000 and nearly $200,000 a year, according to the report.

The U.S. Army’s Fort Campbell is also one of the top employers in the area, which is also home to Austin Peay State University.

“Bringing more jobs to a smaller area can be great for the local housing market, if inventory is able to keep up with demand,” said Hannah Jones, senior economic research analyst at Realtor.com. 

“The data suggests that a pickup in demand resulted in significant home price growth over the last six years. However, prices have leveled out in the last year and time on market has grown, suggesting the market is rebalancing,” Jones added.

Clarksville is the fifth-largest city in Tennessee in terms of population, and has seen an uptick in new home construction in the last few years.

“In terms of single-family home sales, in 2025 about 85% were existing homes, roughly on par with the pre-pandemic norm,” Jones said.

“Nevertheless, the new construction share of sales grew almost 6 percentage points in 2025 compared to 2024, suggesting that more buyers are opting for new construction compared to the last three years, though the share is below the pandemic era norm,” she added.

FAA investigates Delta flight that radioed wrong NYC tower upon approach

FAA investigates Delta flight that radioed wrong NYC tower upon approach

Pilots of a Delta flight contacted the wrong control tower during a landing attempt in New York City earlier this month in an alarming mix-up captured in newly surfaced flight audio.

The incident occurred March 15, when Delta Air Lines flight 5752, operated by Republic Airways, was flying from Washington Reagan National Airport in D.C. to LaGuardia Airport in Queens.

Instead of reaching LaGuardia, the pilots appeared to radio the John F. Kennedy tower about 10 miles away, according to audio published on LiveATC over the weekend.

The baffling error prompted a go-around before the flight ultimately landed safely, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) told FOX Business Wednesday.

According to the transmission, multiple control towers and pilots from other flights could be heard on the feed, with one pilot reacting in stunned disbelief as the mix-up came to light.

The exchange began when the pilots identified themselves and requested clearance to land, prompting an air traffic controller to respond in apparent confusion.

“That’s … uh … Who?” the JFK tower controller asked. “I’m sorry, where are you?”

“2-mile final where?” the controller pressed, to which the pilot answered, “Runway 4.”

“At LaGuardia?” the controller asked.

“Yes, ma’am,” the pilot responded.

“This is Kennedy Tower, please go to LaGuardia Tower,” the controller quickly instructed.

“Oh my goodness. All right,” the pilot answered.

Another unknown individual, who heard the interaction in the feed, reacted in disbelief, saying, “That’s crazy.”

The pilots then contacted the correct tower, announcing, “We’re going around.”

The FAA confirmed the slip-up to FOX Business Wednesday, explaining the flight began a go-around, which aborts the landing approach and returns the aircraft to a safe altitude for another attempt.

“The flight crew of Delta Air Lines Flight 5752 performed a go-around on approach to LaGuardia Airport after incorrectly establishing communication with the John F. Kennedy air traffic control tower,” the FAA said. 

“Air traffic control instructed the flight crew to switch to the correct frequency. No other aircraft were involved.”

Tiger Woods won’t captain 2027 Ryder Cup team, golf future remains uncertain

Tiger Woods won't captain 2027 Ryder Cup team, golf future remains uncertain

Tiger Woods of Jupiter Links Golf Club looks on before the match against the Los Angeles Golf Club at SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, March 24, 2026.

Tiger Woods’ future in professional golf remains unclear as he seeks treatment after a rollover car crash last week.

Woods was arrested for a DUI after the accident in Jupiter Island, Florida, his second rollover in five years, and said in a statement on X that he would be stepping back from golf “to return to a healthier stronger, and more focused place.”

Woods did not provide a timeline for his return, only that he would be stepping away for a “period of time.”

On Wednesday, the PGA of America announced that Woods will no longer serve as captain of the 2027 U.S. Ryder Cup Team.

“We support his decision,” the PGA of America said in a statement on X. “We commend Tiger for prioritizing his long-term health and deeply respect the courage it takes to make such a personal decision.”

The latest developments leave Woods at least temporarily at the fringes of the sport that made him a household name. The golf community has rallied around the sport’s biggest star as he vows to “focus on his health,” and the PGA Tour said in a statement that Woods has the organization’s full support.

“Tiger Woods is a legend of our sport whose impact extends far beyond his achievements on the course. But above all else, Tiger is a person, and our focus is on his health and well‑being,” the tour said.

Off the course, Woods has been serving as chairman of the PGA Tour’s Future Competition Committee since August. That group has been responsible for creating a vision for the future of professional golf.

A PGA Tour spokesperson said that Woods will return to that role when he is ready to do so.

Golf Channel analyst and former tour pro Brandel Chamblee suggested it could be time for Woods to consider retirement following his latest accident. Woods, 50, has been recovering from various injuries sustained in his car crash in 2021.

“Why would he need to play golf anymore?” Chamblee asked Friday on the Golf Channel’s “Golf Central.” “I think he should probably ask himself that. Consider not playing golf anymore.”

Until Friday’s accident, Woods held onto hope that he would compete in the upcoming Masters Tournament this month.

Augusta National Golf Club Chairman Fred Ridley confirmed this week that Woods would not play.

“Although Tiger will not be joining us in person next week, his presence will be felt here in Augusta,” Ridley said. “Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters Tournament fully support Tiger Woods as he focuses on his well-being.”

TGR, Woods’ education foundation, said it remains committed to serving its students and communities.

“Our thoughts are with our founder as he takes the time needed to focus on his health,” its CEO Hrag Hamalian said in a statement.

Woods’ apparel brand, Sun Day Red, also voiced its support this week.

“He is not just our partner, he is our friend. We are here for him and we remain focused on the work we are building together,” the company said in a post on the Meta-owned Threads platform.

TGL, the indoor golf league founded by Woods and Rory McIlroy, declined to comment about Woods’ hiatus and potential return.

Woods made his first TGL playing appearance of the season for the Jupiter Links team last week in front of a notable audience. ESPN said nearly 1 million viewers tuned in to watch Woods’ return, making it the largest audience this season.
