this one should be fun... except for the inside points

I'm not eating a damn thing or step foot in that evil place! I will however post up something, stand by.

Tony did not say anything about eating that stuff

I heard that if you tape a big mac to the bottom of your scooter that you will then be able to trip traffic lights.

I heard that if you tape a Big Mac to your scooter it will vomit

we have some thunder storms rolling in so the hunt will have to wait for me.

While I am waiting I used google maps to help me find one of these McDonalds dining establishments you are talking about.

I hope I can track one down that wont be too far

Hey Tony
you are Metric down under right?
What do you call the Quarter Pounder at McDonalds?

Hmmmm.... I never thought of that before. We still call 'em quarter pounders. We changed to metric in the mid 70's. You'd think they would have converted them by now.

Actually we call them the same as everywhere else. Crap

I just consulted my conversion program. Imagine going into McDonald's & asking for a 113 gram'er

From the map it appears as you may have trouble finding one...

Royale with cheese...
Big Mac is Big Mac, but they call it Le Big Mac...
they slather it with mayonnaise... I've seen it...

HEY!
This is fun and all, but how about somebody post a picture?

OK, got mine today at lunch time.


Your scooter at McDonald’s = 5 points
McDonald’s burger (113 gram'er (1/4 lb'er) on your scooter = 2 points
McDonald’s drink (medium Coke) on your scooter = 2 points
Total = 9 points

I must confess that I did actually eat the burger. That should be worth 10 bonus points for risking my cholesterol levels

P.S. It looks like the Golden Arches sign is part of my straw. Didn't plan it like that, only noticed it when I transferred the photo from my phone onto the computer

This week's hunt ends Midnight Sunday
WANTED: More Entries

Man, we got plenty of time...

Yeah I procrastinate a lot.

Your scooter at McDonald’s = 5 points
I am working hard to show how easy it is to play

Five points, fünf Punkte!

MickeyD's on Broad Street in the rain. Note the beautiful Victorian behind the sign. This is the gateway to Northern Elmwood in Providence. Bonus points for it pissing down with rain?

Bonus points
McDonald’s drink (any sort) on your scooter = 2 points
Kiddies Happy Meal on your scooter = 2 points

TOTAL of 9 points (or 12 if you count Ronald, but I don't know if that's cheating since it's part of the happy meal.)

I never considered the possibility of Ronald being on a drink. Has this come up in any previous hunts with 2 items combined in one???
That Happy Meal Hulk toy really is awesome

Yeah he's got a lever on his back you push down and his fists smash together. Funny thing was when I ordered the happy meal, the guy was like "you serious?" and I was like yeah, and when he was putting it together he asked "is this for you? Do you even want a toy?" I said heck yeah, give me one of the Marvel ones! Then he pointed at the toy case and said they have the hulk and that flying guy above the silver surfer. WHO IN THE HECK KNOWS WHO THE SILVER SURFER IS AND NOT IRON MAN? Especially when they just recently came out with 2 awesome movies about him... seriously.

Ha Ha, we went through the drive thru once & my wife asked for one of the toys, the girl serving said that they only come with the Happy Meals. My wife said she didn't want a Happy Meal & said "Can't you just give me the toy for free seeing as we're buying other stuff worth more than a Happy Meal???" The reply? "Sorry I'm not allowed to do that". My wife told the girl "I bet Hungry Jack's (aka Burger King in other countries) would give me a free toy"

5 pointer!

Am I too late? Is it midnight between Sat and Sun, or Sun and Mon?

the slightly creepy thing is these pics were taken in 4 states & two continents & they look like they all could be the same McDonald's

I'm going out for my pic now, but you're right, it's all about the branding. One of the most disappointing things about going to Europe was coming into the main terminal at Schipol (Amsterdam) airport. The first thing you see is a Burger King. I don't know what I was hoping to see, but BK wasn't it.

what's even more creepy is my McDonalds. There's no sign at the road, no sign along the roofline. The only way you'd know is the way it's lit up inside at night, or the typical standalone McDonalds architecture. The big sign across the top says "PLAYPLACE" so obviously its another deceptive way for McD's to lure your children in and contaminate them with their garbage. If I was from a foreign undeveloped nation, I'd mistaken that for a daycare.

Here's my 5 points:

Hey I dropped the kids off at daycare this morning & this afternoon they came home fat!!!

Our winner for the McDonald's Hunt with 12 points was Krustyburger. Yay, Applause, Wild Cheering!!!



There's only one week left for this month so make sure you enter the BBQ Hunt to get that top score for a chance to be July's overall winner!!!
