Drunk or sober, this
McDonald's has a special place in my heart. Back when I was in my
early twenties and had a love affair with awful NYU bars like Down
the Hatch and Peculier
Pub, I often found myself in front of this joint wondering if
eating a greasy burger would settle my stomach or put me down for
the night. More times than not I walked away. But on those occasions
when my group decided that we needed to destroy our already hemorrhaging
metabolisms, I often went for the $1.05 hot fudge sundae--until that
fateful morning when I learned that they turn off the ice cream machine
after 2 AM. I came close to having a coronary right there on their
unmopped floor, as I was convinced the only thing that could keep
me alive was a McDonald's sawdust sundae. Well, I didn't die (regrettably
for some) and a subsequent visit years later proved that McDonald's
has repealed the after 2 AM sundae ban. I like to think my tantrum
sparked a controversy that made its way all the way to the head office
and set in motion revolutionary change in the company. [MF]
