There Is No Limit To the Unlimited Appetizer Promotion At TGI Friday’s

(Gawker)

Caity Weaver of our estranged former parent site Gawker made a deal with her editor: if she could stay at TGI Friday’s from the start of the lunch hour until 1 A.M., munching on a single order of all-you-can-eat appetizers, she would get a week’s vacation. Apparently, eating mozzarella sticks is an endurance sport. At least at TGI Friday’s, where, Weaver reports, the sticks are bland and not good. At least you can get a lot of them?

Here we would normally summarize the post and quote highlights, but trust us: you need to go read the whole thing yourself.

We won’t even tell you whether she survived the ordeal (14 hours during which she wasn’t allowed to read a book, use the wi-fi, or anything else that would make 14 hours in a TGI Friday’s bearable) or finished all of the mozzarella sticks (she ordered 7 plates, and no one cut her off.)

Suddenly I’m very hungry, which I don’t think was supposed to be a reader’s reaction to this piece.
