The All Important Ability to Eat Fries

A travel report by Tom B.:

I recently took a road trip which started in Akron , Ohio and took me all the way to Phoenix , Arizona . It was the second ( almost ) cross-country trip I had taken in 2006 . To make this one different , and to keep myself alert , I decided while still in Akron to count how many McDonald's there are along the way . The trip starts 76W to 71S to Louisville , KY , 65S to Nashville , TN , and 40W to Arizona . I took some back roads in Arizona , so I actually counted only one there . Here is the count for the other states I drove through ;



  • You will see 14 "sets" of golden arches in Ohio . Starting with the ones in Wadsworth .
  • If you get hungry while driving through Kentucky , there are 20 Micky D's to choose from .
  • Tennessee offers 15 opportunities to grab a Big Mac while driving through .
  • If you are looking for a McDonald's drive-through , drive through Arkansas , where you will find 16 of them .
  • Oklahoma is OK . But OK is not good enough , because they only have 15 McDonald's along I40 .
  • It doesn't take long to drive across the panhandle of Texas , but if you get hungry you can stop at any of the 6 McDonald's there .
  • And finally , New Mexico is hanging in there with 12 McDonald's along the way to Arizona .




Would you like fries with that ?
