Customers ask Jaws Jumbo Burgers...Jay Leno... has he come yet?

It will be a year April 9th and customers still ask us at Jaws Jumbo Burgers if Jay Leno ever came in to try the burger named in his honor, as if we would hide such a humongous secret. Jaws Jumbo Burgers, is a very popular burger joint in Farmington Hills, MI., We created the burger when City Council Member Martha Reeves criticized Jay Leno’s free concert performances in Auburn Hills, by saying he was not helping lift Detroiters spirits up, because he was not actually performing in Detroit. The Jaws Crew thought that was ridiculous considering how many celebrities actually come to Michigan without getting something out of it. We came up with the Thank You Jay Leno Burger and offered it to Leno and his crew at anytime, any day, and at any hour for free after the shows. Leno or his crew never showed up, but do to the local press the burger became a popular menu item with two third-pound ground sirloin patties, mushrooms, four strips of bacon, and double Swiss- American cheese for a $10.25. We started a campaign that has included practically everything except stalk Leno. We invited Jay Leno and his wife Mavis to come back to Michigan all expenses paid. We sent emails, postcards, letters, had a customer deliver the info personally to Jay Leno at the Las Vegas Auto Show, started a Thank You Jay Leno Facebook page, and they even took out an ad in the Los Angeles Daily News for $1500. The restaurant received some more attention from the press when we offered Jay his very own Jaws Jumbo Burgers franchise before the Leno & Conan Showdown for the Tonight Show began. The Detroit News headlines read Burger Joint has plans for Leno If Stupid NBC plan fails, Crain’s Business Journal Farmington Hills burger joint cooks up deal for Jay Leno and Nation Restaurant News Offering Leno some options. Various blogs picked up these stories too, and we sent these quirky stories to the Jay Leno website and still to no avail, there has been no answer from Leno or his camp. We all know Mr. Leno is pretty busy but couldn’t he at least have someone else call or try the burger instead? The Jaws Crew is hopeful. Visit www.jawsjumboburgers.net. Click the Thank You Jay Leno
