The McDonalds on Blue Lakes opened its doors in Twin Falls on January 4, 1973. Today, it was torn down as the owner prepares to build a new one. We were there - cameras rolling - to watch all the smashing goodness.

After a brief video of the building moments before the demo began, you'll see owner Bill Kyle jump in the equipment and begin the tear down himself. After the pros took over, you'll notice that it didn't take long. Within about an hour, the McDonalds on Blue Lakes was no more.

According to owner Bill, the plan at the moment is to have the new building ready to go in June.

If you have memories of what is now the destroyed McDonalds, please share.
