If you know anyone from Southern California, you've probably heard them wax poetic about In-N-Out Burger.
The legendary family-run chain is now winning over legions of new fans, but farther east than ever before as two new restaurants open in the north Texas towns of Frisco and Allen.
Cars lined up as far as two miles for the drive-thrus, and fans spent the night in the parking lot, for the chance to get a bite of the first In-N-Out burgers east of Arizona.
Danielle DeInnocentes of The Colony, Texas, broke into tears after she bit into a Double-Double, a famous In-N-Out sandwich made from two meat patties and two slices of cheese.
Ms DeInnocentes is originally from Rialto, California, and in a video posted online, she says she is ecstatic that In-N-Out opened a restaurant two miles from her house.
She told restaurant staff: 'You're going to see my every day'.
Ms DeInnocentes called the Double-Double 'the best hamburger in the world', and said, 'Pinch me, it doesn't feel real!'

They're good.
But they're not that good.
And there's not a Texan alive who can't do better in his own backyard.
Yeah, but I’m not crying about it.
I cried once when someone hit my hotdog
I might add Yosemite and Lake Tahoe. But there you have it. That's it.
.
OTOH, it's pretty easy to impress denizens of "The Colony," not exactly Denton County's high-rent district...
in and in and in and in and in and in and in and in and in and in and in and... (night passes) out!
Heres a video of the line for the drive thru:

Leftists of the fast food kind?
Some have a religious experience when Obama appears - others, an In-N-Out burger.
What would happen if you seared a pic of Obama onto the top bun of the burger? I bet you’d see people fainting left and right!!! Well, maybe not right.
They are very pricey now and just a FF joint.
They used to be pretty attentive for a FF joint and cheap, but that was 20 years ago.
HTG? my fave fast food burger is the Whopper with cheese.
Whata burger is next in line
And NO FF burger compares to a REAL BURGER
The line at the one near my house is almost always long and it's been there for years...

This is the sloppiest version I've heard. But it's my fave moment of the show he's been doing for a year now.
Try a burger at the Varsity in Atlanta, GA.
Ouch!
In-N-Out is not really fast food...I've spent long times in line to prove it...:oP
Also, annoying neighbors.
(That's what fences are for, but I have good neighbors anyway so no problem if they come over)
Makes you wonder how many people have already fled California for Texas, that In-N-Out realized that Texas would be an excellent market to open up.
I said that in jest, but you know, AMD, in post 12, made a good observation about the memories.
If I could go back 40+ years to the old drive in, I might have tears too.
Let’s not get too uppity now!
Here at my local INNO there is usually 8 to 10 cars in line at the drive thru.
Now if they can open a Two Pesos in California, that would sell.
