Seattle Metro expects to serve its 3-billionth rider by this Tuesday night, so to celebrate, they're giving away 20,000 commemorative buttons at locations around Seattle.
"From 6:30 to 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, staff will distribute the buttons from all transit tunnel stations; Third and Union in downtown Seattle; the West Seattle Junction (California/Alaska); the Burien Transit Center, 14900 4th Ave. S.W.; the Bellevue Transit Center, 10850 N.E .6th St.; and the Northgate Transit Center, 10200 1st Ave. N.E."
It just so happens that I swing through two of those stops on my morning commute, so I should be able to grab one with minimal effort. It occurs to me that this could be one of those "free frenzy" situations where the fact that you're getting SOMETHING for free outweighs the fact that the free item is, objectively, crap, but... it's a FREE BUTTON! Look, something shiny!
