WTF? Chick-fil-A Fans

I've never eaten Chik-fil-A before. Is it that good? Chick-fil-A fans go for shot at 52 free meals http://www.azcentral.com/...0517phx-chick0517-ON.htmlDeSanta, an Arizona State University business major, had planted himself in front of the store, hoping to be one of the first 100 customers to walk through the door Thursday morning. The first 100 were each rewarded with 52 free combo meals. DeSanta made it.
Company officials started taking names Wednesday evening; the catch was that no one could leave the parking lot. Participants brought large tents, pup tents, sleeping bags and folding chairs to wait out the night. Many also brought the creature comforts of home: televisions to watch DVDs and boom boxes to hear their favorite songs to pass the hours. A DJ also set up on the lot.
The company passed out free food and held an ice cream social at midnight. When the doors opened at 6:30 a.m., Chick-fil-A spokesman Phillip Perlman said, 132 passed through. It wasn't a loss for those in the 101 to 132nd position. They got a chance to win free food for a year as well.

Pretty good for Jesus food.
I like it. I wouldn't wait in line for it. I mean, I wouldn't even wait in a ten minute line for it. But it's alright for fast food.

Although I buy a coffee or two every week from Caribou Coffee and it has been/is a little controversial. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribou_CoffeeThe First Islamic Investment Bank of Baharain has a large financial stake in Arcapita, Caribou Coffee's parent corporation, and in 2002 Yusuf al-Qaradawi's involvement[1] with the bank led to a protest of Caribou Coffee. That same year al-Qaradawi stepped down as chairman of the bank's Sharia board.[2]
