Default McDonald's commercial

Anyone see the oddball commercial where the couple is getting married. And somehow didn't eat. And the Bride's Dad buys them a Quarter Pounder meal and puts it in the limousine with a note?

I mean, this one has to be as unrealistic ad as I've ever seen. Or maybe it's just me...

Saw it first and only time last night. I said to the +1, "now why wouldn't they make up a meal from all the food they fed their guests?" Pretty odd commercial.

Could it be that their target audience is not and never will be married and wouldn't know the difference?

It's marketing by the way. Any factual information provided is mere coincidence.

Here's the ad. Seems to aimed at the hipster bunch. The ones with traditional values.

Maybe it was a sit down dinner service and waiters cleared away the food and there was no source of food to use for a "doggy bag."

Not too busy to eat!!!!!

If the parents paid $$$ for the reception, I sure as heck hope the daughter/son ate something!

If not, they are on their own!
