Bibb County residents might want to super-size their caution when visiting the Golden Arches on Rocky Creek Road, as an uninvited reptilian regular has returned.
What It Means For You: Your Quarter Pounder run could turn into a quarter-mile sprint if you encounter the cold-blooded customer who’s apparently developed a taste for fast food faster than Ronald McDonald can say “I’m lovin’ it.”
What’s Happening: Bibb County Coroner Leon Jones has issued a public warning about an alligator that’s once again lurking around the McDonald’s on Rocky Creek Road, advising residents to avoid the area entirely.
Between the Lines: This isn’t the first time this particular McDonald’s location has hosted this scaly squatter. The repeat appearance suggests the gator may have developed a particular affinity for this fast-food franchise—perhaps it’s the proximity to water or the irresistible aroma of french fries that keeps luring it back to the land of the Happy Meal.
