We ate Chick-fil-A for dinner.
Drive through line wrapped around the building at 5pm, inside was packed, people were parking in the shopping center as all the spots were filled. They even put some picnic tables outside for more seating. 
And through it all, the kids working were all just as polite and helpful as normal, smiling and joking around even with that mass of humanity all wanting food.

When Rahm Emanual and Roseanne Bar get on TV and attack my local mom and pop restaurant, I'll go eat there.
Good job troll. Isn't there some sort of Olympic medal conspiracy thing you can work on? |

This whole Chick Fil A thing is a bullshit marketing ploy. Congrats sheep, you are lining the pockets of the uber rich. Its pretty pathetic if you ask me, if you really want to do some good, go support your local mom and pop restaurant that is owned by Christians or whatever, I am sure they would kill to have the lines that Chick Fil A has. When the mayors of Boston and Chicago (and I don't know how many celebrities) talk shit about by favorite haunts, like Paninis Bar and Grill, Melt Bar & Grilled, Tommy's, or Swenson's, my ass will be waiting in line with the rest of NE Ohio.

I went to Chick-Fil-a twice today. First for lunch at the mall and then a milkshake at a stand alone. I went through the drive-thru and was greeted with "Welcome to Chick-Fil-A, we only have nuggets left."

Stood in line for 25 minutes to get lunch.
Then went and stood in line for about an hour for dinner. Managers said it had been like that since they opened and they called in every employee that could get to work. Today was a good day. Gave me a great feeling that maybe not all people suck, to see this many people stop what they are doing, park a block away and stand in line for some chicken, good chicken but fast food is just amazing. Everyone was so nice, there was even a couple guys open carrying  I was so afraid I would be shot  I had mine concealed. It's amazing, such a large group of people, some with guns, how come no one got shot? How come no one got into a fight? How come everyone was so damn nice? Something wierd is going on.

Easily over 100 cars I would say at the one near my house. If it wasn't for working a double today, I would have been more than pleased to wait in it (or wait for a spot to park to go inside to order).
I'll make up for it tomorrow morning if they get a delivery of chikin' in time for the continued support.

Quoted: Quoted: Oh, those tolerant commies: Martinsburg, WV Chick-Fil-A Bomb Threat Springfield, VA, was off the hook for lunch with a line down the block and the drive-through clogging traffic. In true Chick-Fil-A fashion, they were impressively efficient and moved people through fast. I can't imagine any other fast food place that could have handled the crowd so well. And they were just as friendly and helpful as usual. So inclusive...and understanding... Ironic, that's home of the ATF NFA office. |

Bought dinner for my family on the way home. Also a bunch from work went there for lunch. Also it set up the stage for me to rant about free speech being one sided, and how out of control our tyrannical, nanny, police state government has become.

As of right now there are about 12 cops down here trying to direct traffic. Pretty wild |

Just got back from DC, and met the family at our local Chick-Fil-A for dinner.
Couldn't park in the parking lot because the drive-thru line wrapped around the building, spilling out of their parking lot. Had to parking in the lot across the road. Ordering line area was solid people, with the ordering lines spilling back into the dining area. Saw many people I know eating there, including an old friend open carrying his HK USP45. |

The line of cars at our Chick-fil-a went about 500 yards in both directions. I took pics to post here, but they look just like all the other ones that were posted.

Drove the family through after church this evening. At 8:15 pm the line was still 20-25 cars deep (the line of people was out the door by at least 50 feet). They were out of fries and shakes, so I got our sandwiches and sodas then drove through the Wendy's next door for fries and frosties.
That's right, ARFCOM; I got both

I had a spicy chicken sandwich and lemonade for dinner
The line was incredible. Got in line at about 5:50, got out the door with my food at about 7:15. The manager that was outside keeping drive through traffic from running over the line standers said that it had been a busy but good day. She also mentioned that lots of locations in the South-east had run out of food and shut down already (this was about 6pm mountain time). |

Everyone turned out today to say, it is NOT OK to perverse marriage. In these crazy times, people need family, marriage is the glue which holds a moral society together.

Just got home from a shift on the ambulance, both Fayetteville Ga. locations were absolutely packed this AM, got my usual breakfast "one of their awesome chicken biscuits" and at 9PM this evening "after my shift" I wanted to get a chicken sandwich on the way home.
Tried the south Fayetteville Ga. location, I would have to park in a neighboring business if I could possibly find a spot, to simply walk in and make order. Wasn't happening, so I went north to the fayetteville Dwarf House, at least 80 vehicles in the dual drive thru's and again, you could not get into the parking lot, the large shopping center behind it was used as alternate parking and there were tons of vehicles there. They even set up a blood bank bus and the firemen from the City of Fayetteville were there eating and enjoying the atmosphere. I eventually drove north to the hood "Riverdale in Clayton County" to find there location to be packed but manegeable and only about 25 vehicles in the drive through, sandwiches were as always, awesome! Yup......this is really hurting them.

NPR is just plain sad, not sure if business was up?! I am willing to bet that the CFA I went to today (TWICE) made more money today than they do in a month. Based on the never ending lines that went out both doors and a drive thru line that never seemed to get smaller and every employee that is employed there was on duty.....yeah business isn't up. Bunch of losers. I'm tempted to go back tomorrow or I may wait for Friday

Stopped by after work for a peach shake. Got there about 3:50 pm. Drive thru line wrapped around building and out to road. The LEO directing advised to go inside, so I did. Had to park in the overflow lot. There were at least 25 people at the counter, either ordering or waiting for their food. At least 10 employees behind the counter, and I'm sure many more in the kitchen.
The one down the road from the office has two drive thru lines, so it's usually packed at lunch. Today, though, the line was backed up down the road at least a mile.
