'O.J. Is FREE!': Pa. Donut Company Billboards Advertise Punny Promotion

YORK, Pa. (KDKA) -- A Pennsylvania donut company has put up billboards reading, "O.J. is FREE!" But they're not talking about that O.J.

The eye-catching statement is followed by, in smaller print, "with every dozen donuts," along with the Maple Donuts logo.

On their Facebook page, the company says customers will receive a free half pint of orange juice with every purchase of a dozen donuts.

The billboards went up after O.J. Simpson was granted parole earlier this month.

According to PennLive.com, Maple Donuts used a similar punny promotion -- "Free O.J.! with every dozen donuts" -- during Simpson's 1995 trial and then again when Simpson was arrested in 2007.

Maple Donuts is located in York, Pa.
