Remember last month, when that random kid from Reno, Nevada tweeted at Wendy’s to ask how many retweets he’d need for a year of free nuggets, and they told him 18 million?

Well, he didn’t get there . . . he’s at just over 3.5 million.

But even though that’s way short . . . it’s still the ALL-TIME record.  Yeah, he finally passed ELLEN’S Oscars selfie.

And Wendy’s decided that’s good enough.  So they just gave Carter Wilkerson enough gift cards to get free chicken nuggets for a year.

They also made a $100,000 donation to charity in his name.
