I just checked to verify, and assuming (someone confirm for me) it was the McDonald’s, 1500 9th Avenue Station Mall, Altoona, PA 16602: As the crow flies its 232.050 miles. By land transport its 277.516 miles. …sooooooo yeaaaaah…its a stretch but it kinda works. Edit: Hold up…depending on the route you take it Could be 277 to 290 miles…so…yeah…
