As if we weren't all desperately anticipating the first day of Spring in Minnesota, DQ is making the new season's arrival that much sweeter -- with free ice cream!

For the fourth year in a row, all participating, non-mall Dairy Queen and DQ Grill & Chill locations will be giving away a free vanilla ice cream cone per customer Tuesday, March 20.

Find a DQ location near you and surprise the kids with an "unexpected" stop!
