Hey everyone, so I got really curious about this whole “Burger King crown guy” thing. You know, that dude who popped up in a video, all happy on a plane with his Burger King bag? I kept seeing him everywhere online and just had to figure out what his deal was.
So, I started digging around. First, I just watched a bunch of videos with this guy. He’s always wearing this paper Burger King crown, and honestly, he seems kinda angry in most of them. I found one where he was getting kicked off a JetBlue flight – that one’s from way back in 2020, I think. He was causing a big scene.
Then I moved on to articles and stuff. That’s where I found out that his first appearance was apparently in some really old ad from the 1950s, when Burger King was called “Insta-Burger King”. Can you believe that? Seems like the crown guy has been around forever. I guess a guy named Leland Cordrey, some artist, created him way back then.
Anyway, most of what I found online was just people wondering why this guy is so angry all the time. Is he just always mad? Or is there some other reason he acts like that? It’s a real mystery, you know?
Here’s what I did:
- Watched a bunch of viral videos featuring the Burger King crown guy.
- Observed his behavior – he seemed pretty angry most of the time, especially in that JetBlue flight video from 2020.
- Read some articles to learn more about his background.
- Discovered that the character is super old, from the 1950s, when Burger King was Insta-Burger King.
- Learned that an artist named Leland Cordrey created the character.
- Noticed a lot of online chatter about why he’s always so angry.
My Thoughts
Honestly, I’m still not sure what to make of this guy. He’s definitely an interesting character, though. I mean, he’s been around for decades, in one way or another, and people are still talking about him. I guess that’s what makes him so interesting? Maybe we’ll never know the real story behind the Burger King crown guy, but it was fun trying to find out!
