Back when the first teaser image for Five Nights at Freddy's 4 was first released, the site had a "secret code" on it that was a bunch of 8s and 7s repeated, revering to the in game "Bite of 87." Apparently some fans typed "8788788778" into Google Maps and found a real pizzeria in Stafford, Va.
Fans (thinking that this was a publicity stunt) called and harassed said pizzeria. Scott Cawthon had to tell everyone that it they had nothing to do with the game. Scott also edited the site to remove the 8s and 7s.
Reddit post from Scott
This would be the end of the story........ if it wasn't for the owner of said pizzeria also posting on Reddit . The owner, after finding out what FNaF was and why this happened, showed no hard feelings with the fans by allowing a “Fazbears pizzeria special” for a limited time.
