At Tara Inn in Port Jefferson in Long Island, you can get a third-pound burger for only $1. It's been the same price since Joe Higgins opened the pub in 1977. How long will this deal last for? For Higgins' daughter's sake, hopefully a long time:

Higgins' daughter Pat said the price will hold as long as the place exists, since her father (now retired) vowed that after he's gone, he'll return to haunt his children if they dare raise it.
