And guess what? He actually got a positive reply from Wendy’s on the condition that if he got 18 million retweets, he would be rewarded with lip-smacking chicken nuggets absolutely free of cost for an entire year. Naturally, the man accepted the challenge and confidently said, “Consider it done”.

Here’s what Carter informed Reno Gazette-Journal,

“I sent out the tweet as a joke but then they responded with the outrageous number… Then I put the screenshot up and it started gaining momentum.”

His tweet shortly went viral and big companies, such as Amazon, Google, United Airlines, etc. supported the man by retweeting.

When Carter got such an immense support, his father advised, “it’s great if it has a great cause other than eating chicken nuggets for a year.”

The boy also liked the idea and made up mind of utilizing his popularity for good cause. He created a website for selling #NuggsforCarter T-shirts and every penny earned from it would go for donations for providing a helping hand to an educational scholarship, Breast Cancer patients’ families and Mom’s on the Run, which is a local NGO that works for the welfare of breast cancer patients.
