As an avid Yankees fan, I am a big fan of MLB.tv and the ability to watch my Yankees from anywhere in the world (except for live viewing in the blackout area). It normally is like $119 at the start of the season (I think it went down to $109 this year) but there are often promos for around half price at Father’s Day.
Move Fast! Free MLB.tv Subscription!
However, there is now a great promo where you can get a free MLB.tv Premium subscription for the remainder of the season! It only requires you to buy a Frosty (I know, that doesn’t sound free but that is how MLB advertised it and the subscription itself is free!) and upload the photo to a social media account. But, act fast as it is only available to the first 34,000 fans! Here are the details:
STEP 1: PURCHASE A WENDY’S FROSTY
STEP 2: TAKE A PHOTO OF YOUR FROSTY
STEP 3: UPLOAD A PHOTO OF YOUR FROSTY TO EITHER INSTAGRAM OR TWITTER USING #50CENTFROSTYMLB (note: accounts must be public – private accounts are not eligible)
STEP 4: YOU WILL BE DIRECT MESSAGED WITH STEPS ON HOW TO ACTIVATE YOUR MLB.TV PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE 2016 REGULAR SEASON (you will be contacted 24 – 48 hours after your photo has been uploaded by @mlbtv on twitter or @wendysmlb on instagram)
STEP 5: ENJOY WATCHING MLB.TV PREMIUM (blackout restrictions apply)
Edit: It does say that it is good for the regular season so that means you will have to pay if you want the post season.
It doesn’t say that you have to show your receipt so I am guessing that there may be quite a few photos uploaded that may not exactly be a Frosty purchased today! Anyway, if you are near a Wendy’s, rush over and get a Frosty and your free MLB.tv subscription!

So I assume this subscription still won’t include the playoffs like in past years…
It runs just through the end of the regular season. I forget now much the playoff extension cost but I do think it included all the playoffs last year (the extension). In previous years, I think it only covered the NLCS and the WS but my memory could be off a bit on that.
Here’s a beginner question: how do you tell how many times a hashtag has been used on Twitter?
I must be a beginner as well as I don’t know the answer to that either!
