How would you spend $400 at McDonald’s?

The Grand Rapids Griffins, a minor league hockey team from Michigan, won the American League Hockey championship on Tuesday and celebrated the only way 20-somethings know how. They had a beer shower celebration, of course, but more importantly, they ordered more than $400 worth of McDonald’s food, according to the coworker of an Uber driver. Then they left a few bags in the Uber driver’s car (probably were too full).

This is a very, very good way to spend the moments after winning a championship. In fact, some may argue it’s the best way. Especially if the team went right after the beer shower (hehe).

We aren’t sure what the team ordered with all $400, but the ideas had the minds of SB Nation employees on overdrive. The combinations are endless, and the suggestions really spoke to the teams’ personalities. Everyone had good ideas except the people who didn’t pick fries. Their wish lists were wrong.

Anyway, here is how SB Nation’s staff would spend $400 at McDonald’s:

Graham MacAree: A 50/50 split between Chicken McNuggets and Sausage McGriddles. I would die, obviously, but a heroic death is better than an empty life.

Fooch: As many Big Macs as I can. And not the new “Super” Big Mac, but the traditional one. I used to buy two or three at a time when they had $1 Big Macs on the anniversary of its creation. I survived that, I can survive $400 worth of Big Macs.

James Dator: The average price of a quarter pounder is $4.25. So that gives me 94 burgers for $400. That’s 23 pounds of “pure” beef. I’d start a small, but unsuccessful YouTube channel called “Cookin’ by the pound” where I re-purposed them into other items. Nobody would watch. I’d die wondering what could have been.

Jessica Smetana: This is probably how it’d go down.

me: hello can I please have 200 oreo mcflurrys

mcdonald’s: our ice cream machine is broken

Charlotte Wilder: I would spend $400 on fries and fries only because they are to fast food what Henry David Thoreau was to 19th century literature: transcendent. In other news, I hate myself.

Matt Brown: Forget the food at McDonald’s. It’s trash, even by fast food standards. But $400 bucks worth of Happy Meal Toys? Fill up the bag. I now have bribery options to keep my kid quiet during church, doctor’s appointments or other functions or like, the next three years. Y’all can keep the McRib. I’ll take that peace and quiet.

Marc Normandin: I would buy $400 worth of double cheeseburgers and then attempt to build a single $400 tower of cheeseburger using all the patties and toppings, with additional buns for structural support as necessary.

That or just like, a lot of hash browns. Those hash browns make me feel terrible about myself but not terrible enough to stop eating them.

Louis Bien: My go-to meal: One value fry, one McChicken, and one McDouble. Total cost in New York City: $5.33. I would get 75 of these meals and freeze them so that I could enjoy them for at least several weeks. The total cost would be $399.75, so I’d put the remaining quarter in the donation box next to the register.

(Actually, the right answer to this hypothetical is probably put all of the money in the donation box, but we’ve got terrible gluttonous content to make.)

Matt Ufford: I love all the big dreams in this article. They’re great. But if I eat anything more than a base meal from McDonald’s, I feel like I’m dying. So: the two-cheeseburger value meal with fries, then I stay at the register and tell the next 30 or so people that their meal is on me. I AM BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE.

Matt Ellentuck: My doctor, look away

Give me all of the fries with a few nuggets to balance out the system, ya know. (That’s for you doc!)

Patrick Basler: Spending $400 at once at Mickey D’s is a lot of pressure, so I’m going to cheat. Gimme that $400 McDonald’s gift card that I can spend at will until I’m lowered into my grave from cholesterol-related complications. Is it cool? Not really. But fiscally responsible? Hell yes.

Kristian Winfield: I’d probably just buy a bunch of hash browns and breakfast sandwiches. $100 worth of Oreo McFlurries, too, until the machine breaks down. Can I just spend $1 and keep the other $399 for myself?

There you have it. What would you buy with $400 at McDonald’s?
