Happy Friday: Live Bait Anyone?!

This was taken at our local Burger King in McHenry, MD. I thought they would take it down once they realized how bad it looks, but it’s still up– 1 month later!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

  3. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    • Mysterious

      More like does the health department know?!?!?! But I guess gas stations sell food and bait…

      Still a very funny picture and funny idea.

  4. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

  5. Cindy

  6. bob

    does burger king have a fish sandwich? maybe they use the live bait to catch the fish.

    • Kristy

      I know for sure they used to, even if they don’t know. xD

  8. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Im lost as to y they would sell live bait in the first place?!?!

  9. Jenny

    I’m sure this is a gas station that has an attached Burger King and they simply share a sign! LOL! Tons of gas stations sell bait!!!

  10. Ashley M

    lol…. Honestly, My Hubby would LOVE this place!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      hahahaha mine too!!!! lol

    I LOVE the sign. Makes me think of home. I grew up with styrofoam containers of night crawlers in our refrigerator for my brother’s fishing. Besides, it could be worse. My friend is a forensic scientist and he keeps bottles of blood in his refrigerator for testing purposes. Worms don’t seem so bad comparatively.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      eewww fer real!

  12. Holli

    I have a really funny one but I am not sure how to get it from my mobile uploads on facebook to you.

    • Annie

      Just right click on the picture and click on “save image as” to your computer and send Collin a hip post under “Contact”! 😀 I hope your picture makes it on “Happy Friday!” 🙂

    It was at my Burger King in Michigan too. I thought it was a joke. Maybe not.

  14. Jamie

    Hmmmmm… I remember once reading a book called “How To Eat Fried Worms”… but I was always told it was a fiction book…. hmmmmm.. 🙂

    • DP

      I remember that book!!! They made it into a movie!

  15. georgia

    • Jodi

      Its suppose to lighten the mood, make you smile…doesn’t always work I guess!

    • Maney Gale

      The photo is real– I took it and submitted it myself. Feel free to visit anytime – we are in a beautiful part of Maryland, where there are gas stations connected to Burger Kings 🙂

      • Sarah

        Hi Maney! We are up there several times a year at our cabin. My favorite event??? Autumn Glory!!! Plus, summer is so fun on the Lake. You live in a little piece of Heaven!!!

    • Kristina

      I, for one, LOVE these Hip photo posts. They are so fun!!

  16. angie @ the cellar door stories

    this made me laugh, because i have seen this sign many times…..it’s about 5 minutes from the tiny town where i grew up! 🙂 that’s country life for ya!!
    and yes, it is connected to a gas station, where they sell the bait 🙂
    thanks for sharing ~ and if whoever sent it in is out there ~ let me know, we probably know each other 😉

    • Maney Gale

      Of course you know me Angie 🙂 Glad to see I have someone to back me up! The sign is still there, it’s not Photoshopped. Feel free to visit– Garrett Hwy, McHenry, MD 🙂

  17. Trisha

    That’s AWESOME! So funny…burgers and bait! Thanks for posting these…it’s nice to take a minute to not be so serious about coupons and laugh a little!

  18. DP

    • Collin

  19. Maney Gale

    THANK YOU for the $10 Amazon Gift Card Collin! 🙂

    • Collin

      You are most welcome! 🙂

  20. Melissa

    See I can never go to this Burger King cuz the worms always get in my fries!

  21. Sarah

    We have a cabin 5 minutes from that sign……..It is the most beautiful place to go. If you ever get the chance, Deep Creek Lake is a wonderful getaway.
    The Burger King is part of a fuel station that has a mini mart. It is about 100 yards from the lake so they sell fishing gear and yes, BAIT!

    • Maney Gale

      Thanks Sarah- I do live in a little piece of heaven… although it’s a cold, snowy heaven Nov- March 🙂 Have fun @ your cabin this summer!

  22. AshATL

    That doesn’t sound sanitary…. This must violate their franchise agreement.

  23. Emilytwinmom

    This reminds me of home… LOL! Growing up in New England there were many small towns we drove through (stopped in!) that sold bait in just about every store you could think of 🙂 Thanks for the memories!!!

  24. sandersfamilyfl

    Ha, This is too funny! I actually grew up at Deep Creek Lake and used to work at that Buger King. My parents still live there, and it truly is a piece of Heaven. Living in Sunny Florida now! Thanks for repersenting G.C. here!

    • Maney Gale

      It has felt a lot like Florida here this week! 90+ degrees. You never know what you’ll see in DCL!

  25. Kayla

    LOL!!! I stumbled across your site looking for walmart deals and then I saw this picture and thought to myself “wow…that sign looks familiar!” then I saw it’s from McHenry!! I’m from Friendsville!

    • Maney Gale

      Hi Kayla – did you notice they finally took the sign down this week? A lot of GC people must be hip2savers! 🙂
