Trust nothing or no one. I think this "stunt" was down right dishonest.

I agree. I don't know why they can't just be honest and upfront. I also do not see how they improved business.

did anyone really think they were permanently changing their name? it was mostly to introduce their new burgers.
i always just thought it was a marketing ploy.....pretty much what many major businesses use to get people talking.

I think it was supposed to be a real name change until they got so much bad press they decided to call it a stunt

I don't feel any dishonesty. I never thought it would be a permanent name change....only a temporary name change to introduce a new product line.

I saw an IHOP commercial on TV 2 days ago saying that it was just a prank.
The photos of them changing IHOP signs on businesses, that were shown online, were all photo shopped.
Pretty expensive and elaborate prank.

Yes, I think it was pretty obvious the public was not happy with a change to IHOB, just to add more burgers to their menu. It certainly succeeded in people talking about the chain, and drew in some curious customers, but the drama wasn’t worth a permanent name change.
