We have a turncoat in the decades-long pancakes vs. waffles war. Brooke Pancake, who is starting her third season on the LPGA, announced on Tuesday that she had signed a deal with Waffle House.

Pancake grew up in Chattanooga and starred for the Alabama women’s golf team, so one would presume she has patronized Waffle House with regularity. The restaurant’s logo will now appear on her bag and she’ll make appearances at different Waffle Houses while out on tour.
In a release, Pancake disavowed her surname, stating, “To be quite honest, I prefer waffles over pancakes anyway.”
The pancakes vs. waffles war may not be as intense as the pie vs. cake debate, but this is a big loss for #TeamPancake.
UPDATE: Here’s Pancake with her new Waffle House bag that also includes an Alabama logo.
