"Who wants to wait until Friday to kick off their Halloween weekend when in here, it's always Friday's," asked Andrew Jordan, senior vice president of marketing for T.G.I. Friday's. "It's one of the biggest holiday parties of the year so it only makes sense for Friday's to start the fun. We're giving all superheroes, gladiators and celebrity-wannabes permission to get their ghost on early by coming to Friday's on Thursday for America's Largest Halloween Party."
Friday's will also be introducing a new line of signature drinks just in time for the Halloween bash and will feature what is sure to be a Halloween classic: the Pumpkin Pie Martini, a creamy, spiced pumpkin cocktail for grown-ups with Captain Morgan®, Kahlua®, Butterscotch Schnapps, and pumpkin spices, served up with a touch of whipped cream (image available upon request).
