I didn't watch so much as 1 pixel of the Stuporbowl. And I heard about the
Denny's thing from a friend. I had been past one of the local stores that day
and saw all the people outside - but, I thought that there had been a fire or
other emergency which drove the patrons and staff out into the 5oF cold. Turns
out it was idiots willing to freeze their extremeties to score a mediocre free
breakfast meal cooked (if that's the proper term) by uncaring kitchen staff,
served by slovenly waitresses ... with the situation exacerbated by the sudden
and unacustomed crush of business. 

I did better down the McDonalds with two breakfast burritos and a cuppa
Mickey's most excellent coffee. And the line I waited in was while in my heated
vehicle, listening to my favourite radio station.

Bottom line - Denny's got a lot of publicity in print and by word-of-mouth.
They may even get some folks to come back for a second visit. After that the
true Denny's lack of quality/service will drive them back across the street to
the Bob Evans or IHOP or whatever else is available.
