First floating McDonald's was in St Louis, Mo.[edit]

As found in this article: http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/metro/look-back/a-look-back-minesweeper-rides-the-st-louis-levee-sinks/article_3843429b-f297-58b6-a7f9-8e7f017818c5.html, the St Louis, Mo riverfront got a floating McDonald's in 1980, 6 years before Vancouver Expo, given by the quote "But in 1980, a McDonald’s opened on a boat built to resemble a river packet." found in the article about the history of the Minesweeper. Please fix this inaccuracy about the Vancouver location being the first, it was 6 years after St Louis' opened. Thank you.2602:304:CFD3:2EE0:D810:83E9:18B1:47E0 (talk) 22:28, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
