Coke and Pepsi McDonald didn't plan to be fugitives.

They didn't plan to be trapped in a pool of flesh-eating soda pop. And they certainly didn't plan to be pulverized in a giant shredder or crushed in a turbo-charged carnival ride. But what choice do you have when an evil Elvis impersonator is chasing you across America? This cross-country road trip is about to take an explosive turn!

Want to join in the fun? Fire up the old Google Maps and follow the McDonald twins as they get chased from the World's Largest Frying Pan all the way to Graceland, Elvis Presley's home in Memphis, Tennessee. Lucky for the twins: You Only die twice! . . .
