Burger Shot reportedly taking over Skinny Louie in Florida from early November
RUMOR
Secret Miami reports that Skinny Louie restaurants across Florida are being turned into Burger Shots, the fast-food chain from Grand Theft Auto, serving real food. GameSpot’s reporting backs the core of that claim: a promotional conversion running from early November through December 31, tied to GTA 6. Rockstar’s own role is reported but thinly documented, so treat the official side with care.
What we know
GameSpot reports that Rockstar Games and Skinny Louie announced a GTA 6 promotional partnership. Under the deal, Skinny Louie stores convert to Burger Shot through the end of the year, with the campaign running through December 31. GameSpot says the menu is “straight out of Vice City” and includes smash burgers, fries and drinks.
Where and when: GameSpot says South Florida fans can already buy the GTA 6 burgers at the Kaseya Center, home of the Miami Heat. From early November, they will also be sold at every Skinny Louie location in Florida, both in store and by delivery.
The arena stands came first. VGC reports that visitors spotted Burger Shot and Cluckin’ Bell, which had quietly opened inside the Kaseya Center around October 22. VGC adds that the Heat will play on a purpose-built “Vice City Court” in a reimagined uniform, and that Vice City merchandise is on sale at the venue.
On price, GameSpot lists the cheapest Kaseya Center combo (cheeseburger, fries, drink) at $28.50 before tax, and an applewood bacon burger combo at $31.
GameSpot lists Grand Theft Auto VI for release on November 19, 2026, on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. The Florida rollout lands just ahead of launch.
What is rumored
Fan news account iGrandTheftAuto.com posted on X that Skinny Louie confirmed the Rockstar collaboration on Instagram, with Burger Shot at the Kaseya Center and every Florida Skinny Louie from early November through December 31. This is a secondhand relay of a partner’s social post that we could not view. Its content matches GameSpot’s report.
VGC reports, based on fan sightings, that the arena Burger Shot is reportedly a rebranded Skinny Louie’s outlet selling the same Skinny Louie items in GTA-branded packaging, with staff in GTA 6 uniforms. Beebom and Games.gg carry similar attendee accounts. None of this comes from Rockstar.
VGC also reports a recent discovery that Florida-based Tripping Animals Brewing submitted labels for Pißwasser, Patriot and a Vice City lager. The filings point toward real versions of the in-game beers, but any link to Rockstar is inference. One aggregator has corrected an earlier version that listed Pfister among the campaign brands.
Secondary sources, including an aggregator guide, say the Heat’s “A Night in Vice City” game falls on November 18, the eve of launch. We have not seen a primary source for that date.
What we don’t know yet
Rockstar’s direct word. GameSpot frames the partnership as jointly announced by Rockstar Games and Skinny Louie, and Skinny Louie’s Instagram post is the primary public-facing announcement. We did not find a matching Rockstar Newswire post.
The exact November start date is unknown. “Early November” is as precise as the reporting gets.
Cluckin’ Bell’s future is unclear. GameSpot says outright that it is unknown whether the chain will appear outside the Kaseya Center, and its menu and pricing are unconfirmed.
Statewide pricing has not been published. The arena figures may not reflect what a regular Skinny Louie charges.
What it means
Expect a branded wrapper, not a recreation of the game’s menu. The idea that this is a special Rockstar-created menu featuring the game’s oversized burgers does not hold up: attendee reports relayed by Beebom and Games.gg describe existing Skinny Louie food in GTA packaging, and fan footage does not show the in-game items.
For Florida fans, the practical answer is simple. The Kaseya Center serves Burger Shot now. Skinny Louie locations statewide follow in early November and run through December 31, in store or by delivery. This is a limited-time promotion, not a permanent rebrand.
As for Rockstar, the reporting places it inside the deal. The paperwork, so far, does not.
