You'd have to be a huge fan of McDonald's to really appreciate the golden ticket of all golden tickets.

A special VIP card gets you a "lifelong"—or shorter—access to the golden arches and eat everything on the menu FOR FREE.


The mystical McGold Card is real and it could be yours.

Are you lovin' it?

But because everyone is salivating over the steal of the century, it's not easy to get your hands on this elusive deal. A spokesperson for the fast food juggernaut told the Thrillist:

"The McGold Card dates back to 1965, when a McDonald's owner/operators awarded one of its most loyal customers with free McDonald's for life, which became the McGold Card."
"It's a very elusive and secret society. Only a handful of the most dedicated McDonald's fans have been granted McGold Card access."

Actor Rob Lowe—who was granted free McDonald's for a year in Santa Barbara, financier Warren Buffet—who gets free McDonald's for life in Omaha, Nebraska—and the late George Romney—father of Mitt—are among the select few who are a part of this elite group.

But for those wanting an endless supply of Big Macs in their life, now is the chance to be a part of this "secret society" of McGold Card holders.

Between August 10 and August 24, McDonald's is offering ONE McGold card to one helluva lucky McCustomer.

Will it be you?

All you have to do is download the McDonald's app and place an order via the "mobile order and pay" option within the given time frame. You will be limited to one entry per day, not per order.

If you're the lucky winner, you will receive the coveted holy grail of fast food in the form of a 24-carat gold-plated phone case for Android or iPhone.

It won't be a free-for-all binge for the lucky winner, however, as there are some limitations.

The sole winner will be entitled to two free meals a week for 50 years and the card is valued at a cap of $52,350, according to the McDonald's website.

But let's get McReal.





Still, there are plenty who are in it to win it.




Of course, if you prefer Wendy's or Burger King, there's always this option.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
