Gambit's sales staff coordinated their Halloween effort this year to such great effect that they decided to walk down to McDonalds on Canal Street to show off their costumes.

What we learned:

• Today's Youth has no earthly idea who classic McDonalds characters are. (Neither, for that matter, do McDonalds employees. Don't they teach these things at Hamburger U?)

• When a sales executive is dressed as Mayor McCheese, he can expect questions like "What are you supposed to be, a Big & Tasty?"

• Oh, yeah, and: Toddlers are freaking TERRIFIED of the Grimace. If one little girl has nightmares tonight, it's Danielle's fault.

Who the hell could EVER be afraid of Grimace? The freaking Hamburglar, maybe, but not GRIMACE!
