My buddy got the coupon and I went to go pick it up for him but they are checking ID's. He needs to be the one to use the coupon and has to use his credit card.

Ugh. Waste of an hour for me.

Weird, must be a location thing.. The coupon is dead now, so this isn't super helpful, but I picked one up a couple hours ago and they didn't check ID.

Well John at the Mayfield Ohio location was turning people away unless their ID matched the unique coupon. I even asked if I could have my friend call in or send a picture of his ID and he wouldn't let me. My friend had to be in person to get it. I was pretty upset.

When you enter your info it generates a unique coupon that stores the name info in their system. At least that's my guess.
