Thousands of fans swarmed a New Jersey mall for internet sensation Jimmy Donaldson’s (MrBeast) first-ever burger joint, MrBeast Burgers. And then, over 10,000 fans crowded the restaurant even before it opened.
A few thousand even camped overnight just to be able to get a taste of the famous burger.
MrBeast is shocked to see the turnout and overwhelmed with the reception that MrBeast Burgers receive. “We open our first Beast Burger in 10 minutes and there are 10,000+ people already in line,” he said.
What’s more, MrBeast also tweeted his gratefulness to his fans saying, “I literally work in my studio all day and barely ever leave, so seeing something like this is mind-blowing.”
Other than that, MrBeast claims that his restaurant broke the world record. Interestingly, it is for the most burgers sold in a single day by a single restaurant.
