To be honest, I do not really understand why simply being a little bit older entitles one to discounts. If I ride on public transit (not that often, mind you), I am entitled to a lower fare. I take up as much room as others, yet pay less. There is really no rationale to it at all.

All that said, if I'm offered a better deal just because I'm "getting up there", I definitely won't turn it down.

I wonder if site management here has given any thought to offering a Senior Discount?

Kidding, kidding...

The Big Arch is only at 1035 W. Randolph in the Windy City, so almost nobody has tried it. I guess I was expecting to hear some buzz about it. Throw me a crumb. Two QP Pattie’s, three slices of white cheddar, crispy onions and Arch sauce. Slow worldwide rollout. You heard it here first.

Most likely only there because their Corporate HQ is there as well. Next time I see Ronald standing outside on a smoke break, I'll tell him you said hi.

I just discovered that this is a Global Menu McD, likely the only one in the U.S. I’d stop by every quarter to see what’s cooking.

It hasn't hampered your hand pay abilities.

That was a lucky 2 hours. Still way behind the 8 ball for 2025. Probably play light the rest of the year starting fairly soon. Having more fun for now playing the Market and much less expensive. 😬. I do have a new Martingale Clone schedule ready to go, but it’s on Deuces Wild so probably of little interest to FAA. I’m using similar clone rules in the Market with good success so far. And Uncle Sam is always there to pay me back for a nice chunk of my mistakes in the Market. Miss my friends though at Bizarro and some great employees.
