only the first 100 get free food for a year so keep that in mind.

my husband has said that he will camp outside one of the them if they ever open one up near us.
he lived off that food practically every day through his high school and college years ... but his metabolism is different now. ha.

My BIL has a neighbor family who travels around the state doing this.

Never eaten at Chik Fil A or whatever it's called. Probably never will. Certainly can't see the sense in standing in line to be nothing more than promotional fodder for a fast food corporation.

thanks.
I am sure many would or will, but no, I am not a huge supporter of fast foods and no, I would not stand in line to get much of anything free. I have only had food from them a couple of times, although I like their attitude and I approve of any establishment that chooses to close on Sundays (I am old fashion, not overly religious I will add) I am not terrible impressed with what I have had. It has been several years since I gave them a try.

Anything such as this that coerces me into the consumer "herd" mode I wouldn't even consider. I hate crowds to begin with.

No, but I can see why some people would consider it fun, just to see if they could get it.
I would never stand in line on Black Friday to buy the latest widget either, but some people make a game out of things like that.
We have a friend who does not need to pinch pennies, who likes to use coupons. For him, it is just a type of entertainment.

I wouldn't do it. I like it, but only once in a while as I usually try to eat better than fast food on a regular basis, so it wouldn't be worth it to me. I also can't see waiting in even an hour-long line to get free Rita's water ice on the first day of spring. I'd rather pay for it and keep my hour.
