Rubio's for a year

What would you do for free food?

Would you shave your head? Jump in a vat of Jell-O? How about stand in the cold?

That's what will be happening Jan. 9 when the new Rubio's Fresh Mexican Grill at 5300 S. State Street, has its grand opening. The first 50 guests in the door at 10:30 a.m. will receive free meals for a year. (Actually, they will get certificates for one free meal per week for a year.)

Customers of the national restaurant chain have made it a tradition to camp out the night before these store openings to win. Of course, most of the Rubio's are located in sunny California so the only requirement is a lawn chair.

In Murray — in January — winners will need a tent, a space heater, a thermos of hot chocolate and a really big craving for fish tacos.
