The funniest part about McDonald's Monopoly is there probably would have been less fraud if they never hired a security firm to handle the big prizes and instead opted for no security at all.

When do you think was the last time they did that promotion?

I loved it.

I always wondered how hard it was to find boardwalk.

quote:

2. To become a millionaire, you must collect both Park Place and Boardwalk. The odds of finding Park Place are 1 in 11. But, the odds of acquiring Boardwalk are around 1 in 651 million. So, your chances of getting them both are about 1 in 3.5 billion.

A friends step dad worked for the company that printed the tickets on the side of the cups. We would get ziplock bags full of free “winners”. One year for spring break that’s how we survived. Every nickel went to booze and we had free McDonald’s for meals.

My brother said he had the winning piece for a Sega Saturn but lost it. That was almost 30 years ago.

I remember Coke doing a bottle cap game in the early 80’s where they had a letter under the cap. You had to spell out something like
“The Real Thing” The E was the letter that was hard to find if I remember correctly. I had all but like two, as did everyone else. We would trade letters with friends that had one you didn’t and Vice Versa.
Anyone remember what I’m talking abou?
Pepsi had one as well. Maybe had to spell Challenge or New Generation, whatever.

While at LSU I remember winning a “free value meal of your choice” and using it to eat almost free for like a month. I’d just go and order the meal and then add on a small fry for like .69 and always had a dollar ready at the window for the fries and they never asked for the game piece. Good times.

There is a Netflix documentary on the McDonald’s monopoly scandal called $McMillion$. It’s really good and explains the whole deal.

Jerry Jacobson was head of security for the company that printed the monopoly pieces for MD. He was the ringleader.

Hashbrown FTW. Best bang for your buck to get two monopoly pulls.

I remember back in either the late 90's or early 00's they were giving away drink glasses with a combo meal. They had three or four different colored ones. I wouldn’t mind seeing that come back, they were pretty cool glasses really
