A couple more pieces of Denny's-related news from the free Grand Slam giveaways yesterday.
First, here's a reporter who had five Grand Slams. The result:
In three hours, my mood has changed from joyful to blinding rage. My stomach aches, and my esophagus is lined with a shellac of grease in need of scraping out.
Ha!
Second, some people ended up paying over $200 for their "free" breakfast. The details:
A trip out for a free breakfast at Denny's took a big bite out of the wallets of several people in Rosenberg on Tuesday.
Some of those who went to the local Denny's Corp. restaurant for a free Grand Slam breakfast Tuesday morning came out to find their cars had been towed from their spots outside other business establishments. The bill to get their cars back cost $217.15, or the equivalent of about 35 of the $5.99 Grand Slam breakfasts.
Ha! Ha!
Hat tip: Obscure Store.
Not really sure why you're laughing at the second one. Tow companies are the toenail clippings of Satan.

Free breakfast doesn't mean free parking, or park where ever you want. And who has 5 breakfasts? "Gee, I'm uncomfortably full." Well, duh.

If you stuff yourself silly with 5 breakfasts then you won't feel too good. If you park illegally you might get towed. Neither of these are really news nor are they Denny's related.

I wonder if those towed will ask for a gov't bailout. Who knew TARP stood for "Towing Automobile Recovery Program"
