Former US president Bill Clinton delighted staff at a McDonald’s in Georgia state when he popped in for a meal while campaigning for Kamala Harris.
In a cute video shared by his deputy chief of staff, Angel Urena, the 1993-2000 POTUS posed for pictures with workers at the fast-food outlet – who were amazed the 78-year-old had dropped by.
Mr Clinton shared a hug with one particularly delighted staff member as others watched on.
“The boss was stumping for Kamala Harris in Georgia and had to stop by the old stomping grounds, McDonalds,” Mr Urena tweeted.

Democratic presidential candidate Ms Harris is travelling to Erie County, Pennsylvania, on Monday as she seeks to win swing voters in what is proving to be a tight race for the White House against Republican Donald Trump.
Ms Harris unveiled new policy proposals aimed at Black men on Monday that include forgivable small business loans and access to a new legal recreational marijuana industry, Reuters has reported.
The Harris campaign and Democrats - including former president Barack Obama - have expressed deep concern about whether black men will turn out on November in numbers seen in past elections and whether they will support Ms Harris or Mr Trump.
The new slate of policy proposals is part of an effort pushed by Ms Harris to make a direct pitch at black men and make them a more central part of her campaign during the final stretch.
The new policies include one million loans that are fully forgivable of up to $20,000 to entrepreneurs in underserved communities, and a promise to legalise recreational marijuana and help ensure black entrepreneurs have access to the new industry.
Meanwhile, a 49-year-old man arrested for having weapons outside Donald Trump’s rally in California on Saturday has denied an assassination plot.
The man, named by police as Vem Miller, was arrested at a security checkpoint on Saturday after he was found in possession of two guns and a high-capacity magazine, authorities said.
Mr Trump's rally on Saturday took place in Coachella Valley, an area known for its annual music and arts festival.
Last week, at he stepped out with Elon Musk at a rally in Pennsylvania – the Twitter owner sharing his unbridled joy at backing Mr Trump’s campaign.
