If Tim Tebow strikes out three times during the Drive’s series against the Fireflies, the whole crowd will get free Burger King Whoppers. Tebow, who had a rough spring training outing with the New York Mets, was recently sent to their minor-league affiliate the Columbia Fireflies. The two-time BCS national champion, Heisman Trophy winner, NCAA record holder for most passing and rushing touchdowns in a single season, and winner of an NFL playoff game will be lining up in the outfield for the Class A affiliate.
This is not the first time the Drive have come after Tebow on Twitter, responding to ESPN’s coverage on Tebow’s baseball “career” back in September.
.@espn getting geeked up about @TimTebow's instruct league HR is the equivalent of getting excited over spring game completion % #yawn

Columbia bit back at Greenville, responding with a screenshot of their own tweet, implying the Drive might care a little too much about Tebow and his baseball adventures.

The real winners here are fans of the Greenville Drive. Not only do you have a chance at seeing an embattled former NFL quarterback and national champion play mediocre baseball this June, you also get free Burger King!
