Why does McDonalds sponsor the Olympics?

Those two things have nothing to do with each other. Ain't nobody in the Olympics that eats Big Macs. It's like Pizza Hut sponsoring the Miss Teen USA pageant, or Long John Silver's sponsoring...anything.

I challenge any Olympian to come forward and announce that cheeseburgers and Coca-Cola were a part of their training regimen. You're probably thinking "Hey, what about the snowboarders?" Well it may be true that snowboarders are frequently high and childish, but they are also vegetarian. I will concede that they probably do eat a lot of french fries and apple pies, but that is kind of a kooky exception.

In fact maybe McDonalds should think about sponsoring the X Games. Shaun White could be the new Ronald. All he needs is yellow pajamas and some make-up. Imagine Ronald McDonald on the half pipe. He turns to the camera and says "I'm lovin' it!" while in mid-air. They wouldn't even have to use special effects.

The Olympic rings, when merged with the McDonalds arches, look like this:


That would be kind of a cool Olympic mascot, I gotta say. Looks like John Lennon (also vegetarian).
