It’s always kind of stressful finding a place to go on Valentine’s Day – everywhere is either super expensive or super booked out – so why not take all the stress away and just take your girl to McDonalds? It’ll be like that episode of The Simpsons where Homer proposes to Marge with an onion ring.
This might sound stupid, but apparently it’s actually real and at one McDonalds in Southport, North Carolina it’s a tradition that’s been going on for three years. This isn’t just any regular McDonalds meal though – they’re really pulling out all the stops.
Even though you have to go in there between 6pm – 8pm (do they close early on Valentine’s Day or something?), you’ll get table service and also be greeted at the door by one of the staff. Wow. Not only that, but you’ll also be treated to musical selections by Ron, who sounds like the kind of guy who you would find DJing at the weekend at a working men’s club in Bethnal Green.
For me, Ron really is the icing on the cake on what already sounds like a perfect evening – I know what I’d be doing if I lived anywhere in North Carolina.
