Man gets Big Mac attack — 23,000 times

[JudynTX]

:wow :wow

FOND DU LAC, Wis. - A 54-year-old man says his obsessive-compulsive disorder drove him to eat 23,000 Big Macs in 36 years.

Fifty-four-year-old Don Gorske says he hit the milestone last month, continuing a pleasurable obsession that began May 17, 1972 when he got his first car.

Gorske has kept every burger receipt in a box. He says he was always fascinated with numbers, and watching McDonald's track its number of customers motivated him to track his own consumption.

The only day he skipped a Big Mac was the day his mother died, to respect her request.

The correctional-institution employee says he doesn't care when people call his Big Mac obsession crazy. He says he's in love with the burgers, which are the highlights of his days.

I don't think it is. :lol

[sa_kid20]

I don't think it is. :lol

I don't think he meant the main guy. There was this other guy they showed in the film that had eaten a shit load of Bic Mac's over a number of years. I'm assuming this would have to be the same guy.

How did he make it to 54?

Are you serious?

All McDonald's burgers are horrible.










And who says "yummy"?

[jack sommerset]

I think I have eatten over 1,000 McRibs in my life time. When they first come out I eat about 10-15 the first week.

[Bigzax]

they need to use 1/4 pound patties for bigmacs, those cheap bastards!

[Brutalis]

Fast food burgers are so gross. Wendy's is decent however.

What-a-burger FTW.

[METALMiKE]

Everytime I eat a Big Mac I get really sick.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

A rancher friend of mine says that everytime there are lame or crippled cattle available at auction that the McDonald's folks are always snatching them up due to their cheaper prices. He said he wouldn't eat one Big Mac, much less thousands of them.

Yeah, that's the guy that cameo'd in Supersize Me. It's amazing that he's still alive, let alone still eating 2-3 Big Macs a day. The guy recanted the story about how he ate 9 the day he got his first car. The scary thing is that he took them out to the car to eat them.

I've heard about christening your back seat, but that's just disgusting.:downspin:

Dude when you order one they are half that size though.

To be fair, Big Macs are about half the size as advertised (and all smashed up). Anyways, the Big Mac >>>>>>> Baconator

Nobody could eat 23,000 Whataburgers and live to tell the tale.

[ShoogarBear]

1000 McRibs is living dangerously, too.

At least you'd go out with a smile though.

big macs aren't bad, but the meat isn't anywhere as tasty as the baconator's.
