To celebrate famous Dave’s 15th anniversary they are giving everyone named Dave (David, Davy, etc.) a free entree on August 30. Maximum value is $15, offer is good on all eat in and take out orders with picture ID verifying your first name is Dave. If your middle name is Dave, then you’ll get 50% off an entree on August 30 with a picture ID verifying your middle name is Dave. And if your last name is Dave, Davison, or some derivation of Dave? You’re out of luck as the specials are only good on first and middle names.
As always, I recommend calling your local Famous Dave’s to be sure they are participating. Find a restaurant near you here.
Your turn: This promotion strikes me as a little wacky, but cool. What is the craziest promotion you have ever heard of?


I wonder if they will have people suing them for discrimination for this promotion?
I remember when bars had to stop having ladies night because that was ruled discrimination against men. Someone will probably view this the same way
Here is the craziest sale that I have heard of:
At Totally Kids fun furniture and toys this week
if you bark like a dog while placing your order
you receive 10% OFF your order.
They call it the Dog Days of Summer Sale.
LOL. That’s hysterical!
i didn’t realize you posted this. i got a follow-up e-mail saying this promotion was sent to our market (twin cities) by mistake, and that it’s only intended for select markets. therefore it looks like this deal is a no-go here. sorry!
Most of the Famous Dave’s locations in the Twin Cities are participating. You can check out the participating restaurants here. http://www.famousdaves.com/daves-day/#participating-locations
if they’re participating, then they’ve had a change of heart at the corporate headquarters. i wish i had saved the e-mail.
Mike – I have heard this promo advertised on the radio and TV, so I think it is a go in the Twin Cities, but as always call your local store to confirm.
We took our son, David, to a Twin Cities location for his free meal. It was very busy, but worth the wait! He said it was the best meal he’s ever eaten.
This was so fun. We went with my family (husband Dave and son middle name David) and some friends who also had same situation. Very fun.
