Happy Meal With A Side Of Happy Smoke

by derek on May 16, 2007 · 14 comments

A friend of mine just sent me a note about a McDonalds in the Chicago suburbs where a man and his three children received a little something extra in their Happy Meal.
Apparently one of the employees stashed a lighter, pipe and a bag of marijuana in the Happy Meal box that was delivered to the man and his children in the drive-through. The 17-year-old employee has been arrested and charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
As a father of two young boys that get an occasional Happy Meal, it is kind of scary to think that something like this can happen and I am sure the father in question was rather surprised when his child mentioned there was something in her Happy Meal.
How would you react to a situation like this one? Would you report the incident to the police and hope they believe the drugs are not yours, simply throw away the drugs and paraphernalia, or kick back and have a little happy smoke? ๐Ÿ˜‰

If I was a father and this happened to me with my children, I would flip out. I would go and seek Angry Chinaman Dragon vengeance on the punk.

Eating a happy meal is probably worse for you than smoking the dope! Did you see “Super Size Me?” I used to love Big Macs, now I rarely crave one.
I don’t think I would smoke it, but hey — ya never know!

@Leo – I’d flip out as well if this happened to either of my kids but my vengenance would have to be a little bit different.
@Damien – I did see “Super Size Me”, although I did feel the extremity was a little obscene as there was another film or study done where a guy ate McD’s every day but also exercised and he didn’t have the same negative results.

That Happy Meal toy would be better than some Shrek3 character.
“Sorry baby, that toy is for daddy!”

I wonder why the kid put his pipe and what not in the happy meal bag anyways, trying to get rid of it, or just being stupid and playing a prank?

I’m not sure about the pipe but I have heard stories before where ordering a particular combination of items was the “password” for the guy inside to pass drugs out to the customer. They used that as a means of selling drugs, so maybe three happy meals was the code word here so the kid sent drugs out.

Right, they should have used something like “filet-o-fish” because I don’t think anybody orders those things! ๐Ÿ™‚

Wow, what a bunch of punk teenagers. I bet that dad had a tough time explaining to his kid what was going on.
I don’t even know what I would do in that situation.
