Per The Hindustan Times:
Bill Clinton travelled to Georgia to rally after Vice President Kamala Harris and garner votes for the elections in November. During this visit, Clinton decided to visit McDonalds outlet in the area. In an amusing incident, the worker at the outlet did not recognise the former president as he talked to her. The food outlet worker failed to recognise him until he told her his name. The incident elicited various reactions from the netizens on the internet.
ADVERTISEMENTIn a video since being shared on various social media platforms including microblogging site X, Clinton stands at the counter of an outlet of McDonalds while the worker tries to recognise him. He then extended his hand for a handshake as he told her his name. While it took her to place the name, her co-workers stood there in shock and some recorded the interaction. The worker screamed “Oh my God! I like him” excitedly and moved from the counter to give him a side hug.
She then got a few pictures clicked with Clinton as the latter made small conversations with other workers present at the outlet.
Clinton was in town to promote Harris in one of the battleground states and secure votes for the upcoming elections. The incident particularly sparked interest among people as Harris recently opened up about her job at McDonalds.

Per 11 Alive:
Former President Bill Clinton made a McDonald’s pit stop while campaigning in Georgia on Sunday, taking pictures with surprised workers.
A spokesman for Clinton, Angel Ureña, posted video of the visit on X. He didn’t say where exactly it was taken, but Clinton had been campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris in Albany on Sunday.
Former President Clinton famously made the occasional McDonald’s stop while campaigning, to the point where it was parodied on Saturday Night Live. There’s even a McDonald’s in Little Rock, Arkansas he’d frequent with a plaque dedicated to him.
