Chipotle is running a “Bowls For Goals promotion in honor of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which starts this Sunday. (Here’s how to stream the World Cup for free.) Whenever the USA national team scores a goal in the World Cup, Chipotle will be give away free food eligible to be claimed through Dec. 31.

How to get free Chipotle during the World Cup

All you have to do is watch the USA games and text a specific code to “888222.” The code is supposed to come from Chipotle and the U.S. Men’s National Team’s official Twitter accounts every time the Americans score, and if you’re one of the first 5,000 people to text, you’ll receive a promo code to get your free food. Of course, there are caveats: There is a limit of one code per mobile number per game, and Twitter might not survive the day, let alone the World Cup. Nothing is certain and the universe is chaos.

When does the USA play?

The World Cup kicks off this Sunday, Nov. 20, although the USA doesn’t play its first game until Monday, Nov. 21 at 2:00 P.M. ET. The USA is in Group B, along with England, Wales, and Iran. The first game is against Wales.

Set notifications (if Twitter is still working)

Follow Chipotle and the U.S. Men’s National Team on Twitter and click the bell on their profile pages (next to the Follow button) to get notifications when they tweet. If you want, open a draft message in advance with the recipient “888222" so that you don’t have to type in the number when everyone else is rushing to text them. Once you get the push notifications, hopefully you’ll have a leg up in the race.
