According to the website, South Louise, North Cliff, and East 26th Street are all currently afflicted with broken ice cream machines. No cones, no milkshakes, the horror.
The website was started by Rashiq Zahid. He is using a program he developed to use the McDonald's app to try to order ice cream to determine whether or not the ice cream machine is working.
He tweeted out that he is placing an order at every McDonald's in the country to find out which machines are broken. That order is worth $18,752.
