The Burger King unit on Avenida Afonso, in Campo Grande was taken over this Saturday (31) by consumers of all ages, who were looking for the most famous snack of the franchise, the Whopper, distributed for free.
The promotion is allusive to Halloween, which is celebrated today, so to receive the product it was necessary for each one to arrive mounted on a broom to the drive-thru. There are other rules too, like wearing a mask and respecting your distance.
Willian Caiado, 35, with a degree in International Relations, arrived around 11:30 am with his girlfriend Daiani Alves, 32, secretary. “The idea was to come from a witch, it has to be root. We cut the branches and put creativity, “he said, showing the makeshift broom. “I came for fun, to get out of the routine. I think it’s great because BK represents the nerdy community and I like this world, ”said Daiani.
The problem is that the place was basically sold out and not everyone followed the biosecurity rules due to Covid-19. Asked about the overcrowding during the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic period, Willian assured that he and his girlfriend were taking the necessary precautions, since they did not remove their mask and kept the minimum distance.
On the other hand, the 18-year-old student Bruno do Carmo, who claimed to be in the cafeteria for joking with friends, admitted the risk of contamination from the crowds. “There is risk, but the Brazilian is a bit stubborn,” he said.
Secretary Bárbara Letícia, 22, was accompanied by her 1 and 2-year-old daughters. “It is a different activity for those who are not used to it,” he said. Asked also about the coronavirus, she said that she and her family are prepared, as they had alcohol gel and a mask in the bag. “We came prepared.”
