Reply to comment by _PM_ME_YOUR_FORESKIN in TIL that due to a restaurant offering free sushi to anyone with Chinese characters for salmon in their name, hundreds of Taiwanese changed their names in a situation that was dubbed "salmon chaos". Some are now stuck with names like Salmon Dream or Dancing Salmon. by Kurma-the-Turtle

There was a pizza place near me that offered free slices for life if you got their logo visibly tattooed on yourself. People did it, then it immediately went out of business.

Maybe the pizza place was just a front for the tattoo parlor

Domino’s in Russia did a similar thing. Get the logo tattooed and you'd get 100 pizzas a year for 100 years.

Which led directly to the invasion of Ukraine for their strategic mozzarella reserves.

Was it unlimited slices per visit for life or like one slice a week for life with the purchase of a drink

I miss the old "eat this XXXL pizza and get 50% off pizza for life" promotions.

I don't know why businesses do stupid promos like this, if I saw someone with a tattoo of a restaurant, I'd think the place was a trashy spot for crackheads.
