If you offer Liam Neeson free sandwiches, he will find you, and he will kill you.

Errrrr, wait. Not that.

When employees at the Vancouver-based Big Star Sandwich heard Liam Neeson was in town filming his upcoming movie Hard Power, they decided to try and lure him to their restaurant the only way that makes sense: free food.

They wrote "Liam Neeson eats here for free" on the chalkboard outside the establishment and waited.

Like all of us, Liam Neeson was unable to resist the allure of a free sandwich and actually showed up later that afternoon.

"Holy f**k, it worked!" is just about how astutely you can sum this occurrence up.

The Taken actor didn't actually take them up on their offer but he did pose for this picture and then left to resume killing a bunch of bad guys (we assume).
