Utah teens' attempt to rap McDonald's order leads to citation
October 29, 2009
Over the last couple of years, videos of consumers ordering at drive-thru via their own rap songs have been YouTube sensations. This week, four teenagers in American Fork, Utah, were cited by police for disorderly conduct after their attempt to rap their order at a McDonald's turned into an argument, according to KSL TV5 in Salt Lake City.
The teens said they were just having fun. The store's manager, however, said the problem was in their repeated refusal to speak their order clearly and then cursing at employees.
From KSL TV5:
The four teenagers — one of whom is 18, the rest 17 — tried singing out their order through the intercom, in rap style. Employees said they couldn't understand, and that eventually led to police being called....Thursday evening McDonald's franchisee Conny Kramer released a statement saying: "The safety and well-being of my employees and customers is a top priority. At this time, these are just allegations. We strongly caution anyone from jumping to conclusions about this matter, without having all the facts."He said the police were called based on the actions of the teens, but not as a result of them rapping their order.
