The Kurt Meinickechicken nugget may be simple, but boy, it attracts plenty of fanfare.

Corey Dunkin, 30, a web developer and illustrator from Sydney, Australia created a Facebook event back in August called I'm going to go get some Chicken McNuggets®, taking place at the McDonald's store on George St on Oct. 6. That's it.

Of course, the event was started as a joke. But it now has about 4,000 people attending, according to Facebook, and even McDonald's has responded to it.

"To me, it's such a non-event. Like, to make an event like that, is stupid, so I just thought it was funny," Dunkin explained.

"I had put it up ages ago, and got no notifications, no traction. Then I think around Tuesday, I noticed I had like 70 notifications, and I checked and [the event] was flooded."

Dunkin had even sent a message last Wednesday to McDonald's via Messenger, explaining there might be more than the usual amount of people showing up on the day, "just in case."

Sadly at the time, he didn't get a response from the fast food chain.

Fast forward to a week later, and McDonald's posted on the event page on Thursday, saying it would provide a special register for chicken nuggets orders, and even a dedicated table on Friday night.

A McDonald's spokesperson confirmed this would be the case to Mashable.

Dunkin has even created an illustration to promote the event.

Despite the hype, Dunkin thinks only a fraction of the potential attendees will even show up — it was meant to be a joke, after all. But he is going to show up, planning to order a 10 piece with two sweet and sour sauces.

"Hopefully it's an okay turnout. I have no idea what to do except to eat nuggets and then leave," he laughed.
