14 DAY TRIAL // The Onion has made up a 9/11 promotional deal targeting Subway, and the employees of the fast food giant have actually bought into it.
Posted above is a video of two guys asking staffers to honor the coupon, and succeeding. The prank was devised by a third man, and only one of the customers was in on it.
The Onion piece promised a Subtember 11 deal, consisting of two foot-long subs for $9.11 (€6.8).
“Like everyone, we are deeply offended by the fake story and ad created by The Onion,” the Subway company has reacted on Twitter.
A man convinces a friend to take advantage of the promotion after printing out the coupon. The employees are very busy and don't even take a second look, honoring the order right away.
