Euro McDouble Burger: False Memory? 21:41 - Jul 31 with 3609 viewsSwailsey

Right, my friends are adamant that there was a McDonald’s special burger from Euro ‘96 called the Euro McDouble and there was an advert with Alan Shearer. We can’t find any trace of this online, ANYWHERE.

It rings a bell with me, but I can’t tell anymore if that’s just because they have spoken about it so much.

Does anyone else remember this?

Is that the one where the worker asks to check his signature so he can get Shearer's autograph?

NO! But that was my first thought too.

I just googled Euro "Mcdouble" with the quotes and the first result is this thread! Seems unlikely. Maybe they just advertised the mcdouble around then, and there wasn't anything special about it

I was 2 years old, so I don't remember at all

Haha that's fantastic!

Thanks for your help.

I've decided on the only logical solution. I've emailed the Quickly Kevin... guys as part of their Do I Remember This Right? section. I'll keep you updated as I know how important this is.

Introduced in 1997 apparently so the timing isn't far off, could it have been trialed in the UK?

He did do an advert for McDonalds in 2000… for the ‘Big Extra’ - and they had a Euro 2000 official affiliation… could it have been that one in your memory?

Apparently when you remember something- a song an advert a kiss or whatever - you aren’t remembering the thing itself but in fact, you are remembering the last time you remembered it.
Hope this helps.

I literally signed up to this forum just to help you a bit.

I can’t say for certain about the advert or the product in 1996. But can say it definitely existed for Euro 2000.

With apologies for going off topic somewhat…..
My wife and children struggle to accept that for a limited time McDonalds used to sell Pizzas. I thought they were great and was gutted when they were withdrawn. Apparently, this makes me an idiot as “you wouldn’t go to Pizza Hut to get a cheeseburger”.

I honestly saw this on the front page and had a freak out - thinking I’d posted in my sleep.

Honestly, how the hell was this resurrected?
