George Webb Restaurants has announced a free hamburger giveaway in celebration of the Milwaukee Brewers winning 12 consecutive games. This promotion will occur on Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. CT at all 23 locations across Wisconsin. Free burger vouchers will be available starting Friday. The tradition began in the 1940s and has evolved over the years, initially promising free burgers for 17 consecutive wins. The benchmark was adjusted to 12 wins in 1970, reflecting the Brewers' history and successes.
For the third time in its history, George Webb Restaurants will make good on its promise of giving away free hamburgers as part of a longstanding promotion to celebrate the Brewers winning 12 consecutive games.
The free burger giveaway will be held Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. CT at all 23 of the restaurant's locations throughout Wisconsin.
George Webb promised free burgers if the local baseball team won 17 consecutive games, a promotion that changed to 12 games when the Brewers moved from Seattle in 1970.
In 1987, the Brewers opened the season with 13 wins in a row, and more than 170,000 burgers were given away to mark the occasion.
