A Samurai – brought to you by McDonald’s -  has been getting some online buzz on Facebook. The Samurai in question sports a McDelivery carrier and appears to be one of McDonald’s delivery guys.

We think that the Samurai marketing stunt, while possibly hazardous, could be an attempt to promote the return of McD’s famous Samurai burger. Marketing has reached out to McDonald’s for more information on the marketing stunt and to confirm if this is true.

Some even expressed sympathy for The Samurai rider who has to bear the heat, haze and weight of his costume.
