PBMarlin Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 3 cheers for Cordero.......he earned a dozen free doughnuts for all 41,000 fans with his 7th inning hit. Glad to see him do something to make the fans cheer! We stopped by the Krispy Kreme in Boynton Beach after the game to get our 4 dozen doughnuts......was it ever mobbed! The whole place was full of Marlins fans. It took us over an hour to get through the line. I heard the lines at the Krispy Kremes further south were quite a bit worse. Any stories? We were all chanting "We want doughnuts"...it was alot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJBurnett34 Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 yeah i heard about it at the stadium. 12 hits, 12 doughnuts. But can you get them whenever you want? Or it had to be today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzie Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 That's a pretty crazy promotion but then again, getting 12 hits isn't exactly a breeze. Wow Krispy Kreme people must feel like idiots. Shoulda had more faith! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have 24 hours to get your doughnuts. That is why they were mobbed. Might be easier on their staff if they gave the fans more time to collect. It didn't seem as if they were quite prepared for the onslaught of fans after the game....but they handled it pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Juanky Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 After being stranded at 11 three nights in a row it is nice to finally have the donuts (even though I don't eat them anyways). When Cordero's shot went up the middle you could have sworn the Marlins had just won the pennant by the roar that went up in the building. It was kind of sad that a big chunk of the crowd left and only about 60% was left to wtch Big Poppa mow them down again for the ninth time, but a win is a win and it's always nicer with dem donuts.

You know it didn't occur to me why so many fans were filing out after the Braves 8th inning....I guess they were all hungry....lol. We hung around for about 15 minutes after the game...and then it took another 15 to get our photoballs.....so by the time we got to Krispy Kreme, it was packed. All in all, a great night. We won, got photoballs, plus the doughnuts. And the crowd was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc marlin Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 The promotion will really probably be an overall gain for Krispy Kreme Corp. not an overall loss. It really doesn't cost them very much to give out all those donuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, we got 12 or more hits 15 times last year. This is going to turn into millions of free doughnuts from KK> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Krispy Kreme makes some good donuts. Can't beat the Fudge Iced Creme filled. Lucky for me, that coffee shop I work in sells these bad boys and I get to eat them!! :hat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bman8316 Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I also waited until the end of the game and then got my photoball, so when we got there it was packed. When we drove up we yelled free donuts and the whole line started going nuts. Overall it was pretty fun we even had the wave going at one point through the line.
