I think the doc is fire ..did well with the recreations and old footage

can’t believe McDonald agreed to be apart of this ...they are like Disney, very protective or their image


So much shyt was on the low... I really don't think even they knew what was going on with their own company.... :wow:

Seems like it was more the company Mcdonald's hired to organize and run the game that committed the fukkery. Most of the people that are interviewed (so far) didn't work for Mcdonald's except for the woman who was on stings with the fbi. Mcdonald's is probably :hubie: and is cool with being associated with this doc.

I remember folks that worked at McDonalds back in the day were hustling peel off fry bags.


not sure why.
they could never win any prize.
as they were employees and you would have had to do what this docu-series movie was/is about.

my pops was a corporate system analyst and data programmer for mickie d's.
plus monopoly was a family board game night thing in our house. So when pops disclosed. You can't get none of that and you can not conspire to get pieces either. Or he could be in trouble. It was stressed to just try to at best be happy with a free fry, drink or at best a big mac winning piece.
if you got sumfin else. which my pops doubted.

you would have to throw the piece away.

I am glad this series came out.
all because it showed how it was compromised. When back then mickie d's showcased always being ultra progressive. As a corporate entity from security to hamburger u.

after the Wendy's peel game cup scandal.
it is good to see this air.

as now, it shows just what occurred.
plus how it occurred. When employees and employees families.
were not allowed to win the monopoly mickie d's game grand prize at all.

i truly think back then, looking back.
mickie d's had nuffin to do with any of the game being compromised. As the game produced revenue and profitability spike's.
the game winner and prizes handed out.
all became an after thought to mickie d's.

i could be wrong.
as of course the entire series has not aired.
Plus after seeing how the ceo of Mickie d's got McDonald's in the first place. Via the silver screen hof movie. I think we should wait for the gateway docu series to end.
to see what occurred in this gateway telling of the story.

before we can absolve dem arches of any blame.
