Spread The Love With Laffos

When it comes to Valentine's Day, it’s often the most thoughtful and sentimental tokens that mean the most.

With Cupid just around the corner, local restaurateur Mark Laffin is offering the people of Mackay the chance to spread positivity and love this month with a unique social media experiment.

Mark “Laffo” Laffin, owner of Laffos Bar and Pizzeria at Caneland Central, is asking people to share their love for those special to them on the restaurant's Facebook page.

Participants are asked to post a photo or video of themselves as a public display of affection and love to their special someone, with the incentive of $1,000 cash for the winner on offer.

"This is a great opportunity to bring some cheer to the town during February, which can otherwise be a pretty drab month," Laffo said.

"We are hoping for people to get creative, have some fun and make others happy."

The winner will be decided based on creative effort, heartfelt-authenticity and the number of Likes their post receives.

The winners will be announced on Laffos Bar & Pizzeria Facebook page and via Messenger on February 28, 2023.
