Title: The Golden Arches Are Coming For You!!!! Just not how you'd expect... Post by: Monster Dave on April 17, 2009, 02:28:23 PM It appears that the wind in Window Rock was blowing....well.....hard...
(http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/jalopnik/2009/04/Fallen_Arches.jpg) A retired couple was seriously injured in a McDonalds parking lot when the restaurant's famous golden arches fell and crushed their Chevy Trailblazer. And all this time you thought the McGriddle would kill you. The pair were returning from their Tucson winter home to Chicago when they visited the McDonalds in Window Rock, on the Navajo Nation reservation, when high winds topping 60 MPH brought the sign down. Russell and Carolyn Janke had to be cut from the SUV by emergency workers and immediately sent to the hospital where Mrs. Janke is in serious condition with a fractured spinal column. An investigation is ongoing but we suspect Ronald McDonald will have some serious 'splainin to do. (Thanks for the tip Mike [Chicago SunTimes] ...There's just something about the irony of McDonalds almost killing two people makes me smirk. We've been saying for years that it was bad for you to eat there, now the golden arches' a commeth for ya!!!! LOL!! [laugh] |
