Update to ‘IHOP gets political’

Last month, I wrote about that age old dilemma: Eat free pancakes or vote in the presidential primaries.

As you can see, IHOP has given up on trying to convince 15 state governors to change their primary date from February 5th.  National Pancake Day director Patrick Lenow had to go with Plan B: “If the governors deny our request to move their primary dates, IHOP will be forced to activate Plan B to ensure its celebration of National Pancake Day continues.”

And thankfully for all of us, the celebration continues! See you on Feb 12th!

Actually, I won’t see anyone on Feb 12th . . . at least, not at IHOP. Although IHOP does rule, I do have a job, you know. And living in a largely IHOP-free county, it’s just not feasible. But you go! Eat some pancakes for me. And provide me a full report with all the delicious details. Mmmmmmm . . .
