If any pro team scores 50 points in a game, or as McDonald’s calls it, gets a “50 burger,” fans will be given the opportunity to enter the contest. All they have to do is tweet the score after the game ends and hashtag the words “McDelivery” and “sweepstakes.”
From there, out of everyone who tweets the score, Mickey D's will pick 50 fans to win a year’s worth of cheeseburgers (or the cash equivalent).
