Burger King Celebrates 65 Years With AirDrop

Burger King is celebrating the 65th birthday of the Whopper with a special AirDrop promotion. 

The QSR brand will airdrop 65,000 codes for free Whopper sandwiches in Times Square and on social to celebrate.

It's the latest promotion to fete the quarter pounder's birthday. Last year, BK offered the Whopper for its original price of 37 cents.

Today only, lucky fans of the Whopper in Times Square, NYC, can turn on the AirDrop or nearby share function for a chance to receive a code for a free Whopper dropped directly to their smartphone to claim and then redeem on the BK app, while codes last. And, fans not in NYC still have a chance to get  a free Whopper – a limited number of codes will also be available @BurgerKing on Instagram, while codes last, because BK wants everyone to have a chance to get in on the royal celebration.

The first Whopper was flame grilled 65 years ago in 1957.
