That said, there's a good chance (and that's what I pick up from this thread) that some poeple didn't see the the commercial and/or could have thought this is real.

coupes. Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Originally posted by IG-64 Oh, hm, ok. I wonder how they pulled that off... McDonald's and Yahoo have combined their evil forces and created this advertizing stunt which, will bring much benefit to both. edit: There's a chance the auction is real though... the current bid is now $23,800.00. You never know these days. Golden Palace casino is currently the highest bidder, I'm sure you all rember them getting the famous Virgin Mary Grilled-Cheese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
