Every 20 years, our government allows one business to turn every day of the week into a Friday with a series of special calendars printed on stone. Honor the restaurant gubernatorially ordained in 1993 with today's Groupon: for $9, you get $20 worth of casual American fare at T.G.I. Friday's. This Groupon is valid at the Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, and Gatlinburg locations.

T.G.I. Friday's transforms the six worst days of the week into the only day of the week that is acceptable to most Americans. Friday's is equipped to fill your life with Jack Daniel's sauce and endless salad and breadsticks. The multipronged menu contains prongs for burgers, sandwiches, salads and soups, seafood, pastas, chicken, and more so that any craving-flame can be put out.

Since no food-house can be built without a delicious foundation, augment any meal with some delicious appetizers before building a front door with a signature Jack Daniel's burger ($9.79). Or embrace the succulent elegance of the sizzling chicken and shrimp ($13.99) while a good mate digs into the Japanese hibachi skewers ($10.99 for black Angus sirloin or $9.99 for grilled chicken).

T.G.I. Friday's promises a fun night out with attentive service, savory bites, great menu variety, and lots of red and white stripes.
