To <DIV></DIV>>celebrate the success of NASA's Mars Rover project, the company <DIV></DIV>>is going to give America free Giant Shrimp on Monday, May 10. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>"This is the big announcement that Long John Silver's has been <DIV></DIV>>waiting for since January - that there is evidence of a past salty sea <DIV></DIV>>on Mars," said Mike Baker, Chief Marketing Officer for Long John <DIV></DIV>>Silver's, Inc. "We can't wait to celebrate NASA's <DIV></DIV>>out-of-this-world success, and there's no better way to recognize <DIV></DIV>>their giant accomplishments than with free Giant Shrimp for <DIV></DIV>>America." <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>On Monday, May 10, between the hours of 2 p.m. and 5 p.m., customers <DIV></DIV>>can stop by any participating Long John Silver's restaurant and enjoy a <DIV></DIV>>free Giant Shrimp (one piece per customer). <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Long John Silver's President Steve Davis sent a personal letter to <DIV></DIV>>NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe, congratulating NASA on their <DIV></DIV>>discovery. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>"We've been following the Mars Exploration project since the beginning," <DIV></DIV>>Davis wrote, "and we've been anxiously awaiting word of evidence of an <DIV></DIV>>ocean on Mars. The rovers have been extremely busy since they arrived <DIV></DIV>>on Mars - they've had 'plenty of things on their plate.' Now, with the <DIV></DIV>>discovery of ocean water, America can add one more thing to its plate - <DIV></DIV>>free Giant Shrimp." <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Davis ended the letter by writing, "This is one small step for man, and <DIV></DIV>>one giant leap for Giant Shrimp." He also again expressed interest in <DIV></DIV>>Long John Silver's becoming the first seafood restaurant on Mars. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Baker added that the Giant Shrimp giveaway is the perfect way to <DIV></DIV>>celebrate NASA's historic discovery, which has taken place at the same <DIV></DIV>>time Long John Silver's Giant Shrimp introduction has been one of the <DIV></DIV>>most successful product launches in company history. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>"NASA is making history on Mars and Long John Silver's is making history <DIV></DIV>>here on earth," added Baker. "Our faith in NASA has paid off. Their <DIV></DIV>>giant accomplishment calls for Giant Shrimp." <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>The new Giant Shrimp are the largest shrimp Long John Silver's has ever <DIV></DIV>>served.
