Twitter roasts McDonald's after accidental Black Friday tweet

We've seen it before. An errant tweet goes out from a company's account. Either it was meant for a personal account and somehow made it onto a much bigger stage. Or, as in McDonald's case, it was never meant to see the light of digital day.

Maybe McDonald's was planning to offer an amazing Black Friday deal. Maybe all of our Black Friday morning McCafe coffees were to be free! We'll never know, because the company's social media team still needs copy and a link.

The Twitterverse did have some interesting replies to McDonald's snafu.

McDonald's did respond, some nine hours later:

IndyStar Social Media Platforms Editor Joe Tamborello once accidentally tweeted about his ability to eat large quantities of tacos from the Freeport Journal-Standard Twitter account. It was well-received. Follow him on Twitter and Instagram.
