I was reading in this one book about McDonald's and there was a paragraph about how McDonald's couldn't use the McDonald's name until they acquired the name from a local drive-in called McDonald's.
Does anyone remember those times/care to elaborate?
(sorry the intro is so short, I'm kind of on a deadline)
Yes they couldn't come in until they bought out the local company. I believe it was the early 70's. Burger joints were Burger King, Princes, Jack in the Box, and Whataburger was starting to show up. Coming out of Corpus Christie.. Whataburger is now the top dog.
