First Burger Time* Dies ... Now This!
Do you ever have one of those days where you glance out your window and think you see your local eatery being hauled away on a truck? Well today it actually happened! Not ten minutes ago I was walking past the Big Time Attic headquarters window and saw this:
It's like ... it's like someone decided to haul the moon away. That garish Burger King sign has been a mainstay in the BTA landscape. It's part of our identity. Since moving in two years ago we could always count on a new Burger King slogan to give us a chuckle.
As sad as it sounds, BTA staffers past and present have memories in that fast food joint. A few years ago we produced a game for Cartoon Network and Burger King as part of their "Fosters" campaign. And you bet everyone in BTA rushed across the street to buy a kids meal when the Fosters toys were released.
And oh, the whoppers...
But as sad as it all is, THIS makes up for it:
* Burger Time is the fun-filled arcade game that we have in the office. It got us through some long winter days until finally breaking down forever. Is there some kind of burger-themed curse going on?

Boy, they got that sign changed fast from photo 1 to photo 2... the sun hasn't even changed positions!
Burger King always did have much better kids' meal toys than McDonalds.
so THIS is what they meant when they said PORKYS would cause total devastation to Central Ave!!!!
I ate at this Burger King once. I will remember fondly the toothless hobo that asked me for some fries. Sadness.
