Drive by Snacking

Burger King as Bronto King.

Shaggy and Scooby-Doo take The Mystery Machine out to a drive-thru and order 400 Kids Club meals. The guy serving hands them a giant bag. As they happily drive away, Scooby thanks him.

Home of the Brontoburger

Before getting married, Wilma and Betty worked as waitresses at Bronto Burger.[1]

Behind the scenes

  • The 1996 commercial led to Casey Kasem quitting the role of Shaggy for several years, due to his strict vegetarianism.
  • In 1998, Burger King teamed up with DC Comics to give away free issues of their comics featuring Hanna-Barbera characters in their Burger King Kids Club.
