"The Showdown" - Bird vs. Jordan McDonald's ad - 1993 

“He challenged me for my lunch. I took it personal.” - MJ

EXTRA DELETED BONUS SCENE - Charles Barkely in a hamblurgar costume steals the big mac

Legend has it that they’re still competing for Jordan’s Big Mac

By the time someone missed the Big Mac would probably be cold

MJ's shirt is so awesomely 90's that it almost hurts...

Since then, they meet every Sunday to try and finish this. Last I heard, the shot was: over the fence, into the airplane, over the sea, through the basketball hall of fame, into the time machine, through the window, off the wall, off the other wall, through the air vent, off the floor, nothing but net. That burger is still there, a little cold but still in perfect shape.

I like the way Larry gets a quick rule adjustment in there......."NO DUNKING" Larry can shoot with anybody but never had much air time. These two men are my favorite NBA players of all time. When they were on the Dream Team together, Newsweek wanted to put Jordan & Magic on their July 6, 1992 cover. Magic would not do it unless Bird was on the cover with them. Magic was Bird's biggest competition but they had great admiration & respect for each other. A great example for athletes today!

Greatest. Commercial. Ever.

One of the best commercials of all time.

LOL 1:01 Michael Jordan's face when Larry bird made the shot was like "Nigga don't you ever miss"

People forget just how damn good Bird was. He averaged 24/10/6 for his career, in a league where defense was king.

Your meal is cold, the fries taste horrible, janitor probably stole it by now.

Legend has it, they’re still playing to this day

The two greatest players in NBA history.

This shit's got 90's written all over it right down to Jordan's tye-dye clothes

When you realize they were playing for a 6 dollar meal

Man I remember this, the days!!!

Over Jupiter, onto earth, bounce off of Africa, over the Atlantic Ocean, bounce off of New York, off the roof, nothing but net. “𝑠𝑤𝑖𝑠ℎ“

From USA to China then back to USA, nothing but net.

And then three years later, they’re in Space Jam together.

McDonald's was hot shit back in the day

Legend has it there still playing for that Big Mac to this day.

I literally had a huge smile on my face watching this because it made me realize I was a part of a grea era. Man I love and miss the 90's

One of the best commercials featuring athletes I've ever seen

I actually like ads in the 90's better than the ones we have now

Even if this was real, that Big Mac and fries are cold, and iced Coke is watered down!

>Larry Bird makes shot MJ: "So I took it personally..."

Back when McDonald's commercials were actually cool and good. Nothing they have today holds a candle to this.

If I were a kid watching this, I'd believe they can do what they did. 😄

I really wished i lived in the 80s and 90s era where people were just really awestruck by these ads and these gentlemen ❤️

This ad is from decades ago and still makes me watch till the very end. Unlike many ads these days makes me try to reload within the first seven seconds

Jordan and Bird are legends for life!!on the court,on the commercials and everywhere.even on the Nintendo Entertainment System.Jordan vs. Bird

They'll be in their late 90s like "off your dentures, over my rocking chair, off your rocking chair, under the tapioca…"

If there was a Christmas-themed spot in this series... "Over the river, through the woods, Grandmother's house, the horse that knows the way, nothin' but net".

one of my favorite commercials

thaanks a lot for posting this. Such a great commercial

Lebron: Off to Miami, back to Cleveland, then LA. With tag-along superstars required.

Jordan got that old man, grandpa voice

I wish all ads today were as interesting as the ones from the golden age of ads

Legend says that they are still playing...

They should of made Magic stealing the Big Mac while they were gone.

Michael Jordan took it personal when Larry wanted to play him for the Big Mac meal.

legend says that they are still shooting to this day

"no dunking" LMAO

This wouldn't have been any contest. All they would have done is go to 3 point shooting. Larry Bird would have walked out of there, big mac in hand and laughing.

And the burger is in the same condition as it was the day they started.

Legend has it their still playing for the Big Mac

legend has it this wasn't a commerical. they just stumbled on bird and jordan actually doing this for the big mac. :)

MJ made me wanna play bball 15 years ago when I watched Space Jam, I think he's a great actor and really funny , and this commercial shows it once again

when they do the showdown magic johnson ate their prize would be hilarious

I was born in 1999 and its commercials like this that made me wish I grew up in the 90s

that early 90's fashion. so timeless....

"While jordan and larry battle for the big mac" "Magic johnson comes in the building" "Hmmm who left the big mac?" -sees larry and jordans showdown- "thanks for the lunch guys!"

"Don't challenge me Sozin, it will only end badly"

One of the best commercials ever

Legends never die.

1993- No dunking! 2011- No jumpshots!

Classic!

Love this commercial

Legends say they're still making buckets to this day

the end tho 😂😂😂 they took it too far

Curry watching the ad 30 years later: Am I a joke to you?

These commercials were golden

All time favorite best commercial ever

0:01 who shot a gun

He said no dunking

*Legend says they r still playing for it*

We're just using this for our school's Video Production project on the remaking of the commercial video.

Nobody: Jordan:"GET IN THERE!"

Magic Should have been there, and stole the big mac

Hands down my favorite McDonalds commercial - as they were my two favorite players!

Still to this day,the best McDonalds commercial ever!!!!

Lebron would never make these shots! GOAT!

Would’ve been funnier if when they missed Barkley was eating it

favorite commercial ever :D

I wish they had those sorta ads these days, classic ones

why didn't they just split the big mac and fries..

While their playing the Big Mac is getting cold Lol

The old school humor that kids love at a certain time

Most iconic commercial ever

Lmao like a top athlete would eat freakin Mcdonalds during practice 😂

Now the burger is cold and its disgusting...

Legend has it that they are still going

Back then this commercial make me want big mac like crazy. The real deal back then.

Classic black man/white man commercial from the early 90s.

We Want MJ vs LeBron James Commercial!!

These are my 2 favorite players of all time

I love to see team with these two

this is when Mickey D's tasted good...nowadays they taste like SHIT! 😷

this is not real... how can mj or bird score from outside the arena, imean they cant even see the hoop plus mj is a sub 40% 3 pt shooter i call it bs

"Of the express way, over the river, of the billboard, through the window, of the wall, nothing but net" Genius

BOTH LEGENDS

LMMFAO!!! @ Last Shot The expressway, river, billboard, window and everything nothing but net!! Those were the damn good Times!! watching TV and seeing Michael & Larry appear in a funny commercial, Legends!!
