Stymied by the state Legislature, Uber is planning to provide one service in the Capital Region.

It can’t legally send a ride to your door, but it can deliver free ice cream.

Once a year, the ride-providing service lets people use its smartphone app to get free ice cream delivered to them.

Despite the failure to get approval to operate this term, Uber isn’t giving up…and so it is including the Capital Region in its ice cream giveaway.

The promotion will be done Friday. Uber is partnering with ice cream brand, Magnum, to deliver ice cream bars to those who use the app to order them.

“Even though the Capital Region doesn’t have access to the flexible economic opportunities and better transportation options that Uber offers, local residents shouldn’t miss out on one of our most exciting events – #UberIceCream,” said Josh Mohrer, General Manager, Uber NY said in a press release. “This is the largest global promotion in the history of Uber with millions of people around the globe being able to request ice cream at the tap of a button. If upstate New Yorkers can’t request a ride – they should be able to experience some of the benefits of Uber for one day.”
