The original idea of McDonald’s came to fruition in 1937, when a man named Patrick McDonald opened The Airdrome, which was a food stand, where he sold hamburgers for ten cents each. This stand was located in Monrovia, California. The stand was very popular among the locals; so popular, that his sons, Maurice and Richard McDonald, aged 37 and 31, respectively, took over their father’s business in 1940, by moving it to San Bernardino, California, and renaming it “McDonald’s Bar-B-Q.” Today, McDonald’s is most famous for their Big Mac hamburger. When it was McDonald’s Bar-B-Q, they were most famous for their barbecued pork and beef, two items that can no longer be found on the McDonald’s menu. At that time, they were a drive-in restaurant. Patrons would sit in their vehicles and be waited on by female servers. Their menu consisted of 25 items. After witnessing the growing success of McDonald’s, competition started erecting all around, which prompted the brothers to make a change in their restaurant.
