J. Wellington Wimpy would be proud: word is that Z-Burger will be handing out free hamburgers to customers on days after the Dow Jones Industrial Average loses 500 points or more.

For example: since the Dow was down 508 points yesterday, you can saunter into Z-Burger’s 4321 Wisconsin Avenue NW location, say “Z-BEARger” (I see what they did there), and you’ll get a free beef, turkey or veggie burger.

We’d recommend taking advantage of the deal today — as of 11:20 a.m., the Dow was up about 250 points today, so the chances of a free burger tomorrow appear slim.
