You are correct, Burger King would definitely win for trademark infringement if they sued this clown.

Are you sure about this? It seems to me that while realistically they would most likely be able to strangle the guy in litigation, they would not win if he could successfully argue that his use of the logo is in parody (e.g. years ago there was a baseball card company that made stickers of well-known products that were renamed to have certain connotations, usually gross (like a Ritz package named 'Rats' or some such). The manufacturers of the stickers were sued by a myriad of companies, and they won every time because their works were protected by the free speech protection of parody).
