Chris Ferry's birthday is March 16 but he's been getting well wishes for days.

"Saying 'happy birthday.' I said, 'Who's this?' He said Nick. 'Nick who?' 'You don't know me.' 'How do you know it's my birthday?' 'I saw it on a billboard'," Chris told WLBT News.

His face and phone number are displayed on a giant billboard as you drive into Atlantic City towards the casinos.

The billboard reads: "Wish my dad happy birthday. Love. your sons."

Chris's two sons, Chris and Mike, who live in Florida, paid for the billboard.

Mike said they thought local friends would get a kick out of it - and they did - but so have others around the world.
