Denny’s is celebrating a World Series moment the best way possible—with free breakfast
- Replies 0
Sometimes, a single moment in sports can ripple far beyond the scoreboard, touching places that have nothing to do with home runs or final scores.
It can spark excitement that spills out of the stadium and straight into everyday life, reminding fans how deeply these games connect people.
When the right play happens at just the right time, it can turn a routine weekend into something unexpected and fun. This time, that moment came with a little extra incentive to head out for breakfast.
It all started during Game 1 of the World Series, when Toronto Blue Jays rookie Addison Barger hit a pinch-hit grand slam that instantly changed the game—and a few breakfast plans across the country.
Before the series began, Denny’s had made a bold promise: if any player hit a grand slam during the World Series, it would give away its classic Original Grand Slam breakfast free to all members of its Denny’s Rewards loyalty program.
When Barger delivered in the sixth inning on Oct. 24, the diner chain kept its word, announcing the giveaway just hours after the Blue Jays’ 11-4 victory.

The deal is “our way of turning a history-making hit into an unforgettable meal for everyone in the Denny’s Rewards family,” said Denny’s chief brand officer Ellie Doty.
For those eager to take advantage of the deal, the process is simple. Anyone who joins Denny’s Rewards before Nov. 3 will qualify for one free Original Grand Slam meal, redeemable between Monday, Nov. 3, and Monday, Nov. 10.
Members will receive an email with a unique barcode to claim their breakfast, which includes two buttermilk pancakes, two eggs, two strips of bacon, and two sausage links.

The offer can be redeemed at participating Denny’s locations nationwide during the promotional period.
If you’re not already part of the Denny’s Rewards program, it’s quick and free to sign up at the company’s website.
Once enrolled, members can enjoy ongoing deals and exclusive offers throughout the year, adding even more value beyond this special promotion.

Denny’s has a long history of tying its promotions to cultural moments that bring communities together, often using sports as a bridge between fans and food.
