If you're participating in Chick-Fil-A appreciation day, please take a moment to post your experiences today here!
Telephone update from my wife. She took a friend to CFA for lunch at the store in Rocklin CA. Said there was a huge line at the drive through and an overflowing parking lot. She and I are planning to go there for dinner - she wasn’t sure if they would have any food left over!!!!!
:)
Is America IN DANGER of running out of chickens today? Oh, noes!

chickens are running and hiding like never before.
Since I eat a ChikFila at least three times each week I decided to forgo waiting in line today at Brookwood Mall in Birmingham. Two lines all the way across the food court...at least 150-200 people in line. I estimate people were waiting 20 to 25 minutes.
Thanks for filling us in...much appreciated!
Looks similar to my lunch experience.
The Clearwater Crossing store was like that as well.
First of all - it was delicious!
Place was crowded with a line around the corner of the building to get it. Our local Chick-Fil-A is in a large strip mall, and the parking lot was packed in all directions (I doubt they were all there for the nail salon).
Everyone was polite, upbeat, smiling - there was definitely a positive buzz in the place.
The workers were all smiles, patience, and service - didn't see one not obviously happy to be working there.
Very few political comments - few that I heard were about how some politicians were trying to keep the restaurants from opening, and about how the owner was misquoted. That he was saying something positive about traditional marriage, and it was being twisted to something negative.
Did NOT see any press - probably the biggest story in our semi-rural area. The day is young, though, so we'll see how they report it.
Renews may faith in America - there are so many nice people out there who still believe in a free country.
I’m listening too.
We need to take back the word “gay” and start talking about the NAMBLA/boy-raping/Chicken Hawks.
We need to have their proper negative stigma re-established.
I am getting CFA for dinner. 20 chicken strips- more than enough to feed three adults and 6 dogs - large coleslaw and 3 peach milkshakes. Will buy gift cards to make up for you not being able to participate and give them out in your honor.
If America runs out of chicken I am going to BBQ a Perigrine Falcon, Whooping Crane, or California Condor instead.
Birds on the “endangered” list are super tasty.
>>>It’s looking like Obama is going to lose to a chicken.>>>
FUNNY LINE! I love it.
My state has only one CFA and it’s several hundred miles from here or I’d be there. Going to go check out their on-line sales.
YAY for Boone. My family is from there (going back to 1773!)
Looks like we might have to stand with Wendy’s.
I can say CenterPoint Energy ordered a business lunch from that location today:)
Hit the College Dr. location in Baton Rouge around 11:15, Chamber of Commerce was there and it was busy. They were prepared, took about 15 to get our food, grilled chicken sandwich, waffle fries, and a coke. I love me some Chic Fil A!
Don’t forget the spotted owl!
