Wisconsin’s “Mac Daddy” eats 25,000th Big Mac

FON DU LAC, Wis. — In a sweeping victory for heart disease, a man from - you guessed it - Wisconsin ate his 25,000th McDonald’s Big Mac yesterday.

That means that 57-year-old retired prison guard Don Gorske has eaten roughly 1.76 Big Mac sandwiches every day since his first one back in 1972.

And as an added bonus, he hoards the trash for posterity. His basement is home to almost every Big Mac receipt or box he’s ever eaten.
