BANGOR, Maine, Oct. 6 (UPI) -- The Black Frog Restaurant in Greenville, Maine, may end its eye-opening offer of giving away a sandwich to anyone willing to skinny dip in a local lake.

Under pressure from at least one concerned customer, owner Leigh Turner said he would put an end to the unusual offer at his restaurant if local officials order him to do so, The Bangor (Maine) Daily News reported Friday.

Turner first started offering a free Skinny Dip sandwich to any customer willing to jump naked off the eatery's dock into a nearby lake.

The restaurant owner said he averages two or three takers a week for his revealing offer and the action has only been condemned by the one concerned customer.

He added the event typically only takes place at night and towels are available to limit one's exposure to the general public.

For those with a taste for food or public nudity, the newspaper said the Skinny Dip is a prime rib sandwich served in a baguette roll.
