Before Cuba Gooding Jr committed a whopper of a crime in American Crime Story: The People vs OJ Simpson, he was eating a Burger King Whopper. How yummy was the 18 year old in that 1986 ad?
Before Megan Mullally was an assistant on Will & Grace, she worked at McDonald’s. How cute was the 24 year old in that 1983 commercial?
And did you catch 31 year old John Goodman enjoying an Egg McMuffin towards the end of that ad?
This year, people have been paying it forward by paying for the customer behind them. While most links go to maybe 5 people at the most, a McDonald’s in Florida went all the way up to 250 people. That is right, two hundred and fifty.
According to Bay News 9, Torie Keene told Marisabel Figueroa that she wanted to pay for the meal for the person behind her on line at the drive-thru. She only had one request, that the manager say Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays. The person behind Keene was so shocked and thrilled about what the person in front of them did that they did the same thing. This kept going and going until Figueroa got the 205th car. That’s when Figueroa said the speechless woman was like, “‘What do I do?’ And I said, ‘You just have a Merry Christmas,’ and she went off, and it stopped right there.”
Still this is very impressive. I hope for more stories in the news like this one because we need to hear more happy stories that restore our faith in humanity airing during our newscasters. I am sick of all the death and destruction they keep reporting about over and over again. Who’s with me?
Before Constance Wu was doing Karaoke for her husband’s restaurant on Fresh off the Boat, she was doing it for McDonald’s. How cute was the 28 year old in that 2011 ad.
Joe Theismann is such a great Quarterback, each year a college football player is given a trophy that is named after him. Well, James Corden wanted to test out just how strong his arm is, so he challenged him in a way he has never been challenged before on The Late Late Show. The CBS host hired a stunt driver from Fast & the Furious to drive him around and around a fast food restaurant as Theismann threw food at him through an open window. The legendary player threw it in to the end zone every time, leaving Corden a huge mess. How did Corden do when the roles were reversed? Let’s just say, it is good he has a night job!
Since I am such a sadist, I laughed a lot during this bit. Who doesn’t love to see someone get smacked in the face with a milkshake, hamburger and fries at high speeds.
