Awww...this is nice.

"“Free oysters to any man 80 years old accompanied by his father.”"

"“We kept asking, ‘Was this sign for real?’ and they said yes,” Jimmy told As It Happens host Nil Köksal. “We said, ‘Has anybody ever done it?’ And they said no.”"

Then Jimmy turned 80. :)

"We’ve been back three times and have had free oysters.”

Jimmy says the restaurant has promised that as long as he is 80 and he brings his father along, the offer still stands."

Father, 99, and son, 80, feast on free oysters after cashing in on decades-old restaurant promise | CBC Radio

For Jimmy Rush, 80 and his father Jim Rush, 99, it was a delectable deal too good to pass up — even if it meant waiting more than half a century to claim.
