LIFETIME OF STEAK

Via http://ny.eater.com/archives/2010/05/old_homesteads_10_millionth_customer_to_receive_lifetime_of_steak.php


Congratulations, you've just won a cholesterol problem!

"This week in publicity stunts: Old Homestead Steakhouse which opened in the Meatpacking District back in 1868, is offering its 10 millionth customer free steak every week for him/her and a guest for life. It's somewhat arbitrary given they have to guesstimate the number, but the owners say they've "spent months" running the numbers (uh huh) to figure out the big 10 mil is coming in two weeks. Regardless, someone's about to win an incredibly valuable prize, especially at the current price of $48 a steak. Here's betting some tourist, old timer, or occasional meat eater will end up with the win."

I can just smell the lawsuits now. I am sure the contract that you sign will be 20 pages long filled with all of this legal jargon that basically says "it's not our fault"
