Damn. The King is awesome. The creepy commercials were always hilarious.

boooo

 

[blackdogdeek]

he was my favorite, and probably only memorable, BK mascot.

Fn flies were the last straw.

 

[Spikesoldier]

boooo

best mascot ever

 

[Saint Nick]

In honor of the King, they really need to have some sort of commercial/mini-movie either killing him off or ascending to the big boiga in the sky.

 

[PottedMeat]

best creep ever

Typical PR bullshit. The King is not getting fired by choice, he's in jail for hanging around peoples bedrooms and molesting them in the middle of the night. BK is just spinning this to hide the truth.

The King is dead, long live the King.

The King was an athlete talented enough to play both sides of the ball.

Seeing as he was always just a little bit creepier than Ronald McDonald, it's really no great loss.

 

[NoCreativity]

Still pissed that my King mask got broken.

 

[lothar]

They need to go back to Mr. Potatohead.

History should show it as one of the worst Ad campaigns ever.

 

[waggy]

the ad was fine. the food and service at BK sucked.

I used to love whoppers. but over the last few years it has gotten very bad.

Good thing I still have the Sneak King game collection!

That's why he was named Rookie of the Year and profiled on ESPN:

Wonder how much BK paid for that.
