The McDonald's 'Best Fries on the Planet' Ad Has People Jumping into Water
Leo Burnett Chicago's 'Best Fries on the Planet' campaign for MOCNI (McDonald’s Owners of Chicago and Northwest Indiana) is a multi-tiered campaign to promote McDonald’s french fries as the best fries on the planet -- a widely held belief by consumers.
The campaign, which included creative directors John Montgomery, Susan Credle, Avery Gross and Brian Shembeda, also had a 'Fry, Fry, Fryday' on 11/11/11, where orders of small fries sold for 50 cents. The fast food restaurant also hosted a competition to create a dish to go with fries. For the remainder of November, look up on Clark and Ontario streets not for a bird or a plane, but for a beacon of "fry lights" that will shine through the end of this month.
Art directed by Tim Ratchford, the McDonald's 'Best Fries on the Planet Campaign' shows an endearing grandfather-grandson duo fishing, and when the young boy uses McDonald's fries as his bait, the unthinkable happens.
