In a world filled with artificial intelligence and self-driving cars, somehow a story about Subway is taking the internet by storm.

Currently, the national sandwich chain has a simple, yet life alternating offer for its super fans: If you legally change your name to “Subway,” the restaurant will give you free sandwiches for life (or the sub equivalent of $50,000). That has us thinking — if a name change got you a lifetime of freebies at a local restaurant, what would you pick? Here are our choices:

Dirty Frank’s Hot Dog Palace

Whether you’re more Frank Sinatra, or Frank Ocean, it’s a small name change for a big pay out with these hot dogs.

Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams

Jeni, Jen, J — it’s all the same to us if it ends with a free pint of Brambleberry Crisp.
