We've covered McDonald's a few times on this channel and this will likely not be the last. Theorists, have you ever heard of McDonaldland, the McDonald's theme park? Yes, a real place where you could go hang out with Ronald McDonald, the Hamburglar, Grimace, and the rest. Think of it like a Disney but for a fast food chain... because that was exactly what McDonald's was trying to rip off. It is time to open the greasy wrapper of a part of McDonald's dark history that they want you to forget.

My dad used to tell this story of when he would go to McDonalds and get SOOO excited to see Ronald. this was when they would have people dress up as Ronald. He would always run up to him and hug him, and since he would go there so much as a kid, the guy playing Ronald knew his name. He would go around school all the time telling everyone that Ronald McDonald knew HIS name. Kinda cute, really reminds you on Disneyland with all the characters going around

As a Gen-X who grew up in the 80s. The McDonald land theme definitely had the same kind of magic as Disney. They had talking hamburgers. Which was just as cool in the pre-internet era as a talking mouse. Ronald was the only clown that wasn't scary. I hated clowns but Ronald was the man. He was a low key super hero who was always saving the Hamburgers from thieves and pirates.

My friend with a special... _fondness_ of clowns made me view clowns as something completely else and singlehandedly removed any discomfort I may have felt with them. I primarily felt uncomfortable because I feared being approached in public and messed around with for fun, but now that I know I'm my own biggest clown, nothing can stop me.

Oh, I loved the McDonaldland stuff, especially the hamburger jail! 🤣
Born in 80. I loved McDonaldland. And since my dad was raising us by himself, we got to go to McDonalds a few times a week. Food sucked, but being able to play was nice. So many memories of friction burns on my legs from sliding down the metal slide 😳

Here's an idea for a video: "Who is Grimace and Why Should I Care About Their Birthday?", where you could dive further into the history and development of _McDonald's_ characters/mascots, as well as their current "Grimace's Birthday" promotion.

And now they're selling Grimace's spooge as milkshakes.
I hadn’t heard about the founder at all when I went to see it. My dad and I went to go see some other movie but it was sold out so we chose another one- the founder- and it was one of the best movies I’ve ever seen! I’ll never forget watching it in the cinema. It’s so different to my usual movie taste but I was just so interested. 10/10.

Ronald mcdonald keeps me up at night
Ever since I was 5 in 2012 something felt off about Ronald McDonald like anytime I looked at his face I got this uneasy feeling and till this day I still do😥
Random thing we tried while on vacation in Las Vegas: Since our hotel was the Red Rock in Summerlin, we tried the McDonald’s that they had nearby. The Ice Cream machine was never broken at all while we were there
As a kid, I came up with a theory that Ronald Mcdonald and Hamburglar met in a correctional facility. And somehow they got out, or at least intensively planning to. Birdie was their pet bird, who they truly believed can carry messages like a spy, and Grimace is just a figment of Ronald's imagination as he descended into madness. Looking back at it now, that could be some indie slice-of-life webseries.

You know, these videos tend to be just the perfect length for those awkward spaces of time where your about to go do something, so you want to stop doing anything that is heavily time consuming, but also don't want to sit around until you can go do whatever it is you're about to do.

During three 70s, we kids loved McDonald Land and all the characters. Fun times for sure.
“Nobody can see me cause I’ve stolen all their eyes.” “And if they want them back you have to eat McDonald’s fries.” is what I thought the vid would be about

I think the mascots are more scary because they always look into your soul and see your mind and what your thinking about the ice cream machine
I grew up in perto rico and for some reason the island was always a bit behind on the era so i grew up seing these creepy statues of the mayor cheeseburger and the ham-burglar even in 2008. It's weird talking to people my age who never played with a skip-it or saw these statues out side McDonald's but honestly it's for the best, Birdie will forever haunt my dreams.
