Show Notes

In the late-1980s, McDonald’s teamed up with another icon of American capitalism: the game of Monopoly. Together, the two brands launched one of the most successful and popular marketing campaigns of the 20th century. Certain McDonald’s products came with themed game pieces that customers could collect and assemble to win prizes, including a million dollars.


But there was just one problem: the game was rigged.

Don’t miss the latest season of American Criminal – The Great McDonald’s Monopoly Heist, beginning December 12th.
