In-N-Out Burger has removed the number “67” from its ticket order system as the viral “6-7” meme continues to draw loud crowds of teens into stores.
Why Did In-N-Out Remove 67?
This week People reported that the West Coast chain has retired “67” from its order numbering, after the trend fueled repeated in-restaurant eruptions when the number was called.

Videos online show groups packing into In-N-Out dining rooms, placing orders in hopes of getting ticket number 67, then cheering and screaming when it’s announced.
What is the 6-7 Trend?
Tied to the phrase “six seven,” not “sixty-seven,” the meme has surged on TikTok and other online platforms. It is often delivered with a gesture like someone weighing two options. The meme has gained such popularity with young people that it has spread into schools, and, it seems, restaurants.
The origins of “6-7” have been widely debated online, but the phrase has been linked to a Skrilla track “Doot Doot” that is frequently used in edits and jokes, including videos tied to NBA player LaMelo Ball’s height (6’7”). The song features the now famous lyrics: “6-7, I just bipped right on the highway (bip, bip).”
Reports of 6-7 Ban
According to People, an employee at a Los Angeles-area location said the number was removed about a month ago and added that In-N-Out also bans “69” from appearing in its ticket system.
In a viral video reposted across X, TikTok and Reddit, an employee appears to tell a customer: “We have taken 67 out of our system, so whenever we’re taking orders, it goes 66 to 68—because of people like you.”
While the company has not broadly announced the change, the move reflects how viral micro-trends can spill offline—turning ordinary service moments into flashpoints for disruption.
One recent report described the “6-7” phenomenon as a growing headache for stores as crowds wait specifically for the callout, sometimes filming employees and other customers in the process.
Newsweek reached out to In-N-Out for comment but did not receive a reply at the time of publication.

Internet Reacts
As news of In-N-Out removing the 67 order number spread online, people shared their reactions on Reddit and X.
“Thank you In-N-Out. That s*** was getting annoying,” said one commenter.
Not everyone agreed with the ban, though. One X user wrote: “It’s a silly trend. But why would they ban that? I would think all those kids coming into film it would result in some extra business.”
