A Missouri Town is now in the middle of a hilarious sign war after McDonald’s provoked a nearby Dairy Queen. A war of words is now playing out across marquee signs and poster boards in Marshfield, Missouri.
It all started after a McDonald’s challenged a Dairy Queen to a sign war. Dairy Queen accepted the challenge, and soon after that dozens of restaurants and businesses had joined in the fun.
“HEY DQ! WANNA HAVE A SIGN WAR,” McDonald’s asked.
“WE WLD BUT WERE 2 BUSY MAKIN ICECREAM,” Dairy Queen snapped back with a dis on McDonald’s notorious ice cream machines which always seem to be out-of-service.
Businesses all over town got involved, joining the fun with their own funny signs.
“Marshfield is such a close community, we’re all like family here,” Randy Bryant, Director of Operations at the McDonald’s, says that the sign war was the idea of a member of the staff named Mario.
“He said ‘It’s hot, the world is throwing everyone challenges and negativity,’ so we all found a way to laugh and have fun as a community,” Bryant explained. “And what’s better than an old-fashioned sign war?”
