What? Only a 30 Percent Discount?
November 11, 2013
The Smokey Bones restaurant chain is only offering a 30 percent discount to veterans today. What, no free meal? What an insult to those veterans who proudly served as they defended our freedom to go to Smokey Bones. Those evil foreigners would just love to stop Americans from eating at Smokey Bones. Thank God for the U.S. military. That is one freedom I would not want to lose.
