Someone on eBay is selling a McDonald’s chicken nugget shaped like a character from Among Us, Sports betting site B Sports and the bidding has exploded to unthinkable heights. [Update: the bidding has now ended, with a high bid of $99,997. Whether or not the buyer actually goes through with the sale, however, remains to be seen. The original story follows below]
An eBay seller polizna listed the chicken nugget recently and so far there have been more than 180 bids. The current high bid is $99,897 at press time.
This is not just any chicken nugget–it’s from the recently launched Happy Meal produced in partnership with the South Korean boy band BTS.
The winning bidder will receive the chicken nugget frozen and airsealed “to ensure freshness.” The nugget will be delivered before the food’s average 14-day expiration period, so it could be technically safe to eat, but please do not take our word for it.
The seller has listed the nugget’s condition as “used,” while szechuan sauce can be shipped with the nugget if that’s what you want. Other Among Us-shaped chicken nuggets from McDonald’s have already sold on eBay, but this one might be special because of the BTS connection. Additionally, Among Us developer Innersloth promoted the auction page.
