Dwight Howard Visits McDonald's, Serves McNuggets (PHOTOS)

First Posted: 04/18/10 06:12 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 04:35 PM ET

Dwight Howard recently competed against LeBron James for a McDonald's lunch in a Super Bowl ad reminiscent of the classic Jordan vs. Bird commercial.

It appears Howard's hunger for McDonald's has not been satiated. He visited a Dallas McDonald's on Friday as All-Star Weekend began. McDonald's asked Howard how he dunks his McNuggets, and the Magic center said that he prefers to "dribble and dip it."

He's not the only star athlete to make a McDonald's stop this year. Chad Ochocinco manned the Golden Arches and tweeted about it afterwards in January.

Scroll down to see pictures from the visit, including a shot of Howard serving an order of McNuggets.

Nice one Dwight. Way to "give back to the community". Why don't you just hand out kools and forties.

Always remember, Dwight... without basketball, that is where you'd be working.

Jim your comment here is offensive. Why would you think that basketball is the only job he could get? Oh he's black and tall. How about you crawl back under the rock you call home!

Flexing your race-baiting skills today?

I take that back. Most NBA players, of all backgrounds, are extremely intelligent and would surely go on to become the CEOs of major corporations if they didn't have their basketball careers.

Great PR for him and for Mickey D's - just maybe serve-up the salad for the kiddos!
