Chipotle gives away free burritos during pro basketball championship finals

Slam dunk! Chipotle is making the 2025 men’s professional basketball championship series even more action-packed, thanks to its “Instant Freeplays” giveaway. 

Fans have to act fast for the chance to score a FREE entrée from the popular fast-casual restaurant. 

During every Coach’s Challenge, Chipotle will challenge fans to find a hidden keyword in a post on X for the chance to win a FREE entrée.

Each team is given one Coach’s Challenge per game that can be used to review a personal foul given to one of its players, an out-of-bounds violation, a goaltending violation or a basket interference violation. If a team’s first challenge is successful, they will be awarded a second challenge. 

As a result, there can be up to four Coach’s Challenges per game. 

Here’s the 2025 pro basketball finals schedule: 

All times are EST.

Game 1: June 5 at 8:30 p.m.

Game 2: June 8 at 8 p.m. 

Game 3: June 11 at 8:30 p.m. 

Game 4: June 13 at 8:30 p.m. 

Game 5: June 16 at 8:30 p.m. 

Game 6: June 19 at 8:30 p.m. 

Game 7: June 22 at 8 p.m.

Note: The best-of-seven games wins the championship, so Games 5, 6 and 7 are only played as needed. 

How Chipotle’s “Instant Freeplays” giveaway works:

Whenever there is a Coach’s Challenge during the 2025 men’s professional basketball championship series, @chipotletweets will share a post on X for fans to “review.”

Fans will be challenged to uncover a keyword hidden in the post.

The first 5,000 fans who text the keyword to 888222 will win a FREE entrée. The codes are only valid for five days from receipt, so be sure to use it before it expires. That is, if you’re lucky enough to score one of the codes.
