In a historic collaboration, McDonald’s has partnered with WNBA star Angel Reese to introduce “The Angel Reese Special,” marking the fast-food giant’s first national meal collaboration with a female athlete. Set to launch on February 10, 2025, this limited-time offer celebrates Reese’s dynamic presence both on and off the basketball court.
What’s in the Meal?
The Angel Reese Special features a BBQ Bacon Quarter Pounder with cheese, enhanced by a new Bold BBQ sauce that adds a smoky, savory, and slightly sweet flavor. The meal is accompanied by medium fries and a medium drink, with Reese’s personal favorite being the Hi-C Orange Lavaburst.
Angel Reese’s Connection to McDonald’s
Reflecting on her journey, Reese shared, “McDonald’s has always been a big part of my life, from grabbing a McChicken Sandwich as a kid to being named a McDonald’s All American in 2020.” She further expressed her excitement about the collaboration stating, “It’s really a dream come true to be the first-ever female athlete to have my own meal and be a part of McDonald’s amazing basketball legacy.”
A Nod to Basketball Culture
McDonald’s has a longstanding relationship with basketball culture, from iconic commercials featuring basketball legends to over 40 years of hosting the McDonald’s All American Games, which showcases the nation’s top high school talent. This collaboration with Reese continues that tradition, highlighting the brand’s commitment to supporting athletes and the sport.
