Wyoming Man Captured By Police, Attempted To Pay Off ‘Hooker’ With McDonald’s Quarter Pounder Meal


A man looking for no-strings-attached sex in Wyoming recently discovered that all bargains, no matter how low the price, always aren’t worth it.

The Smoking Gun reports that 22-year-old David Mangus was recently arrested and booked on solicitation charges following a prostitution sting in Casper, the second-largest city in the western state. Allegedly, after scouring through ads on the Craigslist-like site Backdoor.com, Magnus came across a woman who purportedly was offering sexual services for money. After reaching out to the “hooker,” who was, in fact, an undercover police officer, he was able to goad her into accepting a meal from McDonald’s as payment, instead of cold, hard cash.

More specifically, he offered to pay the woman with a McDonald’s Quarter Pounder with cheese value meal combo, which comes with medium fries and a soft drink. Surprisingly — or perhaps not, considering her true identity — she accepted his offer.

When Magnus arrived at the set-up location with McDonald’s bag in hand, cops cornered him without incident. He was booked into the Natrona County jail and released shortly thereafter on his own recognizance. No word on whether he paid a fine or was able to consume the contents of his “payment” as he awaited release.

As odd as paying for such a service with such an item may sound, an actual sex worker was once busted in Florida following her acceptance of delicacies from the popular fast-food chain as payment for the adult-themed services she offered.

According to another report from The Smoking Gun, which was initially shared back in 2012, a Florida woman named Christina Baker, then 47, unknowingly interacted with an officer who was a part of a vice operation. As the two conversed in a car, Baker relayed to her “john” — a colloquial term for those who purchase a prostitute’s services — that he could get off by paying her off with two double cheeseburgers from McDonald’s, which amounted to around $2.75, tax included.

Along with the food, Baker also remarked that she was open to accepting tips for services rendered while in her company. The police officer obliged, giving her $60, before driving her to the nearest McDonald’s to place her order. She returned $20 of his money, accepted the food, and told the cop to take her to a vacant parking lot in order to “complete the deal.” Instead, she was arrested by an awaiting team of officers and received a misdemeanor prostitution charge for her actions.

If that wasn’t strange enough for anyone, yet another peculiar pairing of sexual acts and McDonald’s food items made the rounds of the internet earlier this year. However, it wasn’t so much as someone using the food provided by the restaurant to pay for sexual services, as it was someone who literally used a food item from McDonald’s for sex.

As noted by the Inquisitr in August, a viral video of a man engaging in a sex act with a McChicken sandwich (which can be found on the Dollar Menu) made waves for a second time in a year on social media. In the 17-second clip, which is extremely NSFW, the individual, who appeared to be African-American, is seen sliding the popular burger alternative on his penis viciously and voraciously, using the mayonnaise from inside of the sandwich buns as lubrication.

Because of the attention the video received, the terms”McChicken” and “McChicken video” trended throughout that weekend on Twitter and Facebook. To this day, it is unknown who the person behind the McDonald’s McChicken clip was. Spokespeople for the restaurant declined to comment on the salacious matter.
