J.C. Spencer said the moment calling Chick-fil-A was hilarious to him.

"We had to get out of there so I called Chick-fil-A, now that sounds kind of funny," J.C. Spencer said in an interview on "Good Morning America" Wednesday. "I ordered two grilled chicken burritos with extra egg and a boat. And can you believe that one of the managers of Chick-fil-A, she sent her husband to pick us up and we are so grateful."

I’m charmed by this gentleman, JC Spencer.

Contrast that with our beloved Lootie from Katrina.

Now that is what I call a first rate delivery and “take out” company.

I assure the Chick Fil-A person who took the phone call order asked them if they wanted “Life-jackets and fries”.

A happier ending than the old chestnut about the guy was stranded in a flood and a boat came buy and the man said
‘Go help someone else, I called on the Lord and he will save me’
Next jet ski and same result.
Next an amphibous vehicle with same results.
The man drowns and as he enters heaven he told St Pete that he had prayed and his prayers weren’t answered

St Pete replies, ‘I sent you a boat, jet ski and amphibious vehicle— just what else do you expect’.

First thing I saw as well. Mine is upstairs ...

Antique from the 1890s.

I saw that too... you would think they would move SOME things upstairs to try to save them.

You got to do something to minimize your damages folks...

Looks like a repro to me. They’ll get pennies on a dollar for it....only if they have made a separate rider on their insurance.

As these are elderly folk, perhaps they experience difficultly up/down stairs...have a stair lift, or unable to move heavy, bulky objects w/o help.

Aparently in the confusion, Mr. Spencer forgot his wallet; they went back to get it and her wedding ring.

Mr. Spencer said it was to, *save their marriage*. Darling couple.

I hope Chick-fil-a gets a lot of mileage from this story.

Looks like a reproduction, but the house itself looks high-end.

There’s a Chick-fil-a at the new Atlanta Falcons stadium in Atlanta. It CAN’T be enjoyed during the Sunday games.

It’s not cheap, but it is modern production.

3’ of water in the house means 5 or so in the street.

House ruined, furniture ruined. Anything that is veneer, like the front door, will just curl up and peel. Mountains of furniture, cabinets, sofas, carpet, laminate flooring, sheetrock, carpet all to be laboriously cut out and thrown out and hauled away.

But everything above the water is just fine. What a shame.

So happy to be gone from that place.

I’d rather deal with tornados. At least they get the job done and leave little untouched behind. You don’t have to worry about making a silk purse out of the sow’s ear that water leaves behind.
