It sounds like Capitals and Wizards fans might be eating a whole lot of free McDonald’s this season. In a promotion first advertised on 106.7 The Fan’s “The Sports Junkies,” the deal is this: Download the restaurant’s app and if either team is winning after one period or quarter, you get a free Egg McMuffin. That’s…different.
In the past, we’ve seen most promotions involving food centered around the end of a game rather than something so early on. Hence the Fowl Shot craze, the We Want Wings! chant and the Nationals handing out free nuggets last season if the team scored six or more runs at home.
