Country Star: I'm Big, Tasty and McPissed

Here's a nugget for you. A country music dude is suing McDonald's because he's convinced ... he's the guy on the Big 'n' Tasty box.

Let's review why this is ridiculous. First, the picture could be anyone. Second, the guy's name is Ira Dean -- why would a C&W artist go by Ira? And third -- do you really need a third?

BTW, Ira used to play for Trick Pony. McDonald's couldn't immediately be reached to cackle.

31. I've seen Trick Pony in concert several times. I have photographs of me and the band. THAT IS IRA. He has every right to sue.

32. Ira's a great guy. He doesn't go around suing people for fun. Whether he wins or not is up to the jury, not us or tmz. Btw, to the person who said Ira must be embarassed about being kicked out of a bar .... um, no. He's been kicked out of plenty of bars. Back in the day he could party pretty dang hard.

33. He actually has a good case. I've seen Trick Pony before and would be surprised if the illustration is NOT from a picture of the guy.
