With most McDonald\u2019s restaurants being open 24 hours daily, there\u2019s always a chance that customers could stay there the entire day, as some locations allow guests to use their dine-in services regardless of the time. So when fantasy football player Joe DeLeone lost a bet with his friends, they challenged him to sit inside his local McDonald\u2019s for a full 24 hours. Essentially, he\u2019d have to \u2018eat his way out\u2019 of the fast food restaurant if he wanted to fulfill his end of their agreement that if he lost fantasy, he\u2019d have to stay there all day. While he was inside McDonald\u2019s, Joe took to X to expose himself as coming in last place and gave an update on his progress. Update one, meal one is 2 big breakfasts and 17 hash browns https:\/\/t.co\/UMCDlwSNYn pic.twitter.com\/7YdmD0KxjK \u2014 Joe DeLeone (@joedeleone) June 15, 2024 He also shared a Google spreadsheet that his friend in finance made that detailed all of the meals he could eat that would deduct the minutes he\u2019d have to stay there. For instance, if Joe ate hotcakes and sausage for breakfast, he\u2019d be able to reduce his 24 hours by 60 minutes. If he ate a McCrispy, he\u2019d be able to take away another 45 minutes. There were at least 30 meals on the list that would aid in Joe\u2019s time at McDonald\u2019s being lessened, which also included 5 minutes for playing in the ball pit. While updating X on how the challenge was going, Joe said he ate \u201c17 hash browns\u201d for breakfast, which shortened his time by at least 7 hours, as each hash brown was worth 25 minutes. He also recommended that if anyone wanted to use the spreadsheet and challenge themselves to sit inside McDonald\u2019s for 24 hours, they should \u201ceat as many big breakfasts with hot cakes as you can\u201d since that meal combo was worth 120 minutes per order. My tip is don\u2019t do it \ud83d\ude02 \u2014 Joe DeLeone (@joedeleone) June 16, 2024 But eat as many big breakfasts with hot cakes as you can Joe further noted that he would have liked his meals comped by McDonald\u2019s, as his first order cost him $64. However, he had \u201cenough points to feed a family\u201d after earning almost 10,000 in rewards from his time there.
