Creepy Old McDonald's Commercial
McDonald's is your kind of place indeed.
Ronald McDonald is the clown mascot for McDonald's, he first appeared in local ads in the Washington, DC area in the 1960s portrayed by Willard Scott. This commercial aired in Southern California c. The 1960s and features, Bev Bergeron as the fast-food shilling clown.
Synopsis[]
Ronald walks by a McDonald's sign holding a large McDonald's sack and says "Oh what a beautiful day for fun, what would you like to do?" to which the voices of unseen children shout "a party". Ronald thinks that's a wonderful idea and asks what food they want, to which the children respond "McDonald's!". Ronald than sits on the floor with his large McDonald's sack, he pulls out McDonald's hamburgers and french fries to much enthusiasm from the kids, but then he cannot find the "Triple thick McDonald's milkshakes", when he finally finds the cups, he notices they are empty then a young boy sticks his head out of the bag and Ronald responds "You sure can get a lot out of these bags!"
Why It's Cursed[]
This is an early ad, the character of Ronald McDonald has changed dramatically from his earlier portrayal by Willard Scott, gone are the trays and the cup for a nose and in their place the more familiar red afro hair and yellow, red, and white jumpsuit. Nothing harmless, but if you find clowns in general unsettling, it's probably a little disturbing.
Trivia[]
A pitched up version of the audio clip of Ronald McDonald saying "That's a wonderful idea" was used in the 2015 game Undertale as a voice line for Flowey the Flower.
