Ben & Jerry's Offering Free Cones Tuesday
Enjoy the warm weather with a scoop of your favorite flavor.
Talk about good timing: long-awaited spring temperatures are arriving in the region just as Ben & Jerry's celebrates its annual Free Cone Day.
Participating locations are offering a free scoop to loyal patrons Tuesday, and Twitter is abuzz with tweets filed under the hashtag #freeconeday.
Though College Park lacks a Ben & Jerry's, there's a location nearby in Silver Spring (903 Ellsworth Dr.) and several more in downtown Washington, DC. Check out this handy map from the Huffington Post to find other participating locations near you.
