See what happens when we skip writing Breakfast Links in the morning, Team Dane101? We miss exciting things like Free Pancake Day! Yep, today is Free Pancake Day at IHOP from 7 a.m. until 10 p.m., but because we waited so long to discover this information by not trolling our typical morning routine of websites we have to decide - free pancakes for dinner or free Barack Obama? Tough decision. Everyone loves pancakes (I think). IHOP is offering the free pancakes in an attempt to raise $750,000 for the Children's Miracle Fund. The nearest IHOP is at 4614 E. Washington Avenue. Based on the line already forming at the Kohl Center (to the right of Gate B) in anticipation of Obama's 8 p.m. speech, maybe if you get turned away you can go drown your sorrow in syrup.
