McRib Moves out of Campbell River, BC

I recently received an email from Dax Corrigall (the super fan that reported the McRib being available in Campbell River, BC), that had some rather unfortunate news. Apparently an hour prior to his latest McDonalds visit at the time, the last McRib was sold. As this is the last confirmed McRib sighting in Canada, I have images in my head of a stagecoach leaving town for the last time as it heads west off into the sunset.

On the flip side, it also reminds me us that the McRib’s return to the US is only a few weeks away.

Have you also had the McRib? Make sure to send us a photo (photos@mcriblocator.com) of your receipt so that your sighting may be promoted to confirmed! Bonus for those that also send a photo of themselves enjoying the McRib. We will share these on the blog.

McRib Still Available In Savannah,GA and Campbell River, BC

While it was but just a month ago that the McRib had again made it’s comeback in Canada and in a small part of Georgia, it has again went into hiding in many places. Two places that the McRib is still holding out in are
Savannah, GA
and
Campbell River, BC.
Thanks to Jim and Dax respectively for sending in their receipts so that we may confirm the McRib’s availability.

McRib as child’s name?

Last week, we caught through the Twitterverse that someone had included McRib when they had named their newborn child. Link to Birth Certificate Photo. boring_as_heck was then on a crusade for recognition that he had named his daughter after the saucy sandwich. McDonalds followed up by tweeting out some recognition his way.

Turns out that this fan really is not as die hard as we thought, now recanting and indicating that this was purely an exercise to dupe as many people as possible.

Despite the ruse, this likely has opened the door for fans to tell their significant other’s that this idea is not as crazy as it first sounds.

As for boring_as_heck, I suspect he will be forever watching his back as the Hamburglar will be on the watch for him.

Update:
Turns out boring_as_heck’s purpose in life really is to attempt to test companies/people to see if they will trust what is offered as “dope tweets”. http://corporatetwits.tumblr.com/#footer
Proving that they lack any humanity, I offer the following tweet they recently posted:
One wonders if at some point the jokes might end and legal action will be taken when a tweet is considered to be a threat rather than a “dope tweet”.
