First Mcdonalds in Russia - General

If you were hungry, and that was your only place to eat. You're fucked, boyo. It would probably be over a day before you get there, let alone get to eat.

They sure are determined aren't they

Russians, especially during and immediately following the Soviet Union's collapse, are used to standing in lines. They did an experiment during (I believe) the 80s, where a guy stood outside an empty building as though in line. Before long he had enough people behind him to go around the block.

All those people are going to be sorely disappointed.

They speak french at the end because it was a french program. they said that it was a 3 - 4 hours of waiting to eat here.

2 Words guys Angus Burgers.

Such is life in Moscow

Who knew capitalism could be so tasty?

I hate McDonalds. Burger King is much better. (The best is In-N-Out but unfortunately only in the U.S.)

Holy shit

That is a large line :byodood:. Unfortunately, they are going to be disgusted when they find out what they were standing in line for.

everything is bigger in russia especially Mcdonalds lines was that the first russia joke

Communism is standing in a mile long line for a big mac.

Watched about 1 minute, didn't see McDonalds :(

you guys called? also, McDonalds and Burger king both suck imo, I can barely eat fast food anymore, I used to eat it almost every day.

A&W > All

IIRC they served 40,000 people in the first week it opened.

I don't think it's funny or charming.

It's interesting to watch this actually. Also McDonalds always makes me feel sick after eating it. So i only occasionally eat there for a big mac. I've cut down severely on fast food though, which makes me happy. [editline]02:57AM[/editline] [QUOTE=hats off to you;24448785]five guys?[/QUOTE] It's a medium sized us/canada food chain. I wouldn't call it fast food because the burgers are cooked to order. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Guys[/url] They're known for having big bins of complimentary roasted in-shell peanuts for eating while waiting for the burgers. They're fucking good.

We were showed this in history class. :v:

You guys have no ideas about lines in the USSR. My parents and grandparents have many stories about them. Standing in lines for a sausage, since only the first 50 or so would get them.

Nice music.

I actually visited that Mcdonalds, and it's huge.

Also I bet they were soooo disappointed once they finally ate the food, after 4 hours of waiting.
