Toronto Raptors cost McDonald's millions in free french fries
As part of a promotional partnership between the fast-food chain and the team, McDonald's locations in Eastern Canada give away orders of free medium french fries whenever the Raptors hit at least 12 3-pointers in a game. According to The Financial Post, McDonald's estimated 700,000 orders, but with the team playing so well, that number has ballooned to nearly three times the original estimate, resulting in approximately $5.4 million worth of fries.
Last season, Toronto hit 12 3-pointers in 43 of 82 regular season games and five postseason games. This season, the Raptors hit the mark 44 times, plus another 10 so far during their playoff run.Coolen said they have given away approximately 2 million orders of fries, but that number is still growing. While the final tallies for the playoffs aren't yet available, after Game 1 of the finals alone, where the Raptors hit 13 threes, McDonald's gave away a record 80,000 free orders.
