McDonald's Advertises Through 40-Acre Corn Maze

Tuesday July 29, 2008
In mid-July Papa John's announced plans to grow a crop circle ad in the wheat fields near Colorado's Denver International Airport to promote its whole wheat crust. Now McDonald's is promoting its new McCafe coffees using a 40-acre corn maze near Lincoln, Nebraska. Visitors can navigate through the 2008 McDonald's Maze at Benson Farms and get a coupon for a free McCafe latte, mocha or cappuccino. The most difficult maze phase takes 45 to 90 minutes to explore.
