Drive-thru Bovine


Maybe she just wanted fries with that? What­ever her rea­son, an ambi­tious and brave dairy cow named “Darcy” broke free from her fenced-in field in north­east­ern Col­orado last week pre­sum­ably to check out other pastures—but not before stop­ping in at her local McDonald’s. Yep, “Darcy” trekked a half a mile to the local “Mickey D’s” and decided to stroll through the drive-thru line. Atten­dants at the win­dow were baf­fled, and called police. Luck­ily Brush, Col­orado is a small place, where every­body knows everybody–including ”Darcy’s” owner, young Zach Winn, who was taken out of a track meet to see about his beloved bovine friend. Zach says “Darcy” is a “sweet cow,” but “can be stub­born.” And if she’s bored, “will do any­thing to get attention.”
