Uber is giving away free rides to see 'Mean Girls'—here's how to get one

Get in, losers, we’re going to the movies

Want to see the new Mean Girls musical on the big screen but you don’t have your license yet? Help is here. If you’re a teen, Uber will give you two free rides (up to $15) when you open a new Uber teen account—which will get you to the matinee and home by curfew, no problem.

The offer is good from today until Monday, January 15, so you can catch the early access screenings and through opening weekend. Why today? It’s Wednesday: we wear pink and torment our peers.

The show is based on the musical, which was based on the original movie (this will be on the test), written by Saturday Night Live alum and 30 Rock star Tina Fey. Fey will still be playing Ms. Norbury for that iconic gym scene. And we have to say: the song "My Name is Regina George" is a haunting melody that will follow you all the way through fifth period.

The only bad news? You can’t sit with us—if you’re in California. This Uber offer doesn’t apply there. Also, it’s only for ages 13-17, so although 18 has the word teen in it, you seniors are out of luck. The teen account lets youthful people request their own rides and meals, along with parental supervision to make sure you’re not going to the crackhouse instead. Parents have real-time updates to “see” the ride as you go straight from home to the theater… or maybe sneak in a little trip to the mall.
