Exclamation Who eats at burger king and actually keeps those little twilight tokens?

Sign in to disble this ad
First off, I am in no way a fan of twilight, but I am a fan of winning 100,000 dollars. I know this is a long shot, but I would split it right down the middle 50k if somebody had the other piece I need. Just an idea.

Any body interested? Lol

I worked at BK. I made their hamburgers. Believe me: worst place to eat hamburgers at.

I'm with Knifemaker.

I don't eat at BK, so that disqualifies me.

I also worked there and I have to disagree.

Really, what makes you think any other fast food joint would hold themselves to any higher standards. Even further, whats to say that your particular BK wasnt miles below the rest?

true story. There are three in my area and i only eat at the one that is the farthest from where i live.( well that and the manager there is a old manager of mine from another job so i get the hookup)

But srsly... i wanna win that 100k. I need piece #600. Victoria. even though i have 2/3 of the pieces i would split right down the middle. and then make it a point to have this erased from existence so they could not figure out my "luck". lolol

I just went through the BK drive-through after a rehearsal. I haven't been there in at least 6 months. I'm so hungry after rehearsals, I guess I will eat anything.

Anyway, I never gave a thought to anything with the word "twilight" on it because I think that's one of the gooniest movie franchises ever.

My token says "GANADOR 979" and that I won a croissanwich.

No $100K, and no sandwich since I won't be going back for another 6 months.

wow so much hate for BK here.

i have a friend who worked at a local mcdonalds for two days about 7 years ago. he used to eat fast food fairly regularly like the rest of us do- and he has not eaten one since his two day stint at mcdonalds. it was that bad.

all fast food chains can be horrid. but more important than weather its BK or mcdonalds, is the standards that the particular location your at, are kept up to. except taco bell..those are all disgusting


.......what tokens, btw?

I used to like the Whoppers. Now, they've made the patties so thin they completely suck.

They always make one piece hardest to get. Same reason you see people post similar things online and on Ebay when they have Parkplace in Mickey D's Monopoly game....always looking for that elusive Boardwalk piece.

BK where I live is greasy in an un Godly way, so you can't count me among those that do. I do like the commercial, a bunch of women obsessing over stupid crap and annoying me just trying to eat.

I'm not sure, but I don't believe they have rules against forming a partnership to win. I'd view it more like those lotto pools you see people do, where if one of the pool members win, they divide the winnings equally.

Besides... my vote still goes to Hardee's.

We don't have Burger King here in Australia (well not in most states), but our equivalent is considered by many (me included) to be the greatest fast food in existance.

I'd eat a whopper at every meal if I could.. Although i'd probably die from obesity/tastebud tantalization.

Does that mean someone would have to post a thread in OT blasting brenner (yet not calling brenner out by name) the same way people do when they get screwed over during a transaction in the classifield forums?
