It’s nice to see fast food franchises throwing a little humor in the mix at times.
The above billboard showcasing a stoner-friendly joke relating to McDonald’s breakfast burritos was found in Raton, New Mexico. The McDonald’s location that put up this billboard is just twelve miles away from the Colorado border, where recreational marijuana is legal, so it makes for a pretty fun marketing ploy.
Of course, when the internet caught wind of it, they had a lot of fun praising the new ad.
Whoever came up with this McDonald’s/Weed crossover billboard should make all the billboardshttps://t.co/qum4YWtX7A pic.twitter.com/iujfsC9TKg

Unfortunately, not everybody was down with the billboard. FOX News reports that the McDonald’s Corporation felt that the billboard wasn’t keeping with company standards and that they would be taking the billboard down soon.
It’s not clear yet as to when the billboard will officially be replaced, but I would hurry over to Raton if you’re nearby to get a timeless picture of this truly hysterical advertisement.
