I read Burger king is leaving the USA and will now be Canadian.
 BK started out in Miami in 1954. We used to eat there as a kid. I remember the first time. My mom had just got her drivers license and we drove there in an old green Ford station wagon that had a hole in the floor in the back where it had rusted out and us kids would drop stuff through the hole as we drove along.
 We had never been to a fast food place before. They did not really exist. The Whopper was huge to me as a kid. I could only eat half. The vanilla shake was amazing. there was a big King on a sign over the store. If you go to the store on NW 36 st and 27th Ave, look at your receipt, it will have the number one on it as it is the first store.
 If you guys like this topic I will do more Miami history videos. My family has been here since 1919.

 Thanks for watching, I add more videos every week.
