As I contemplated Fried-day this morning, I felt kind of basic and thought to myself that I could just go for a Chick-Fil-A spicy chicken sandwich and some waffle fries.
It was just before 11 a.m. (I'm a big fan of an early lunch) and I was uncertain whether or not there would already be a long line at the Chick-Fil-A drive thru. I briefly considered driving to the mall so I could avoid the possibility of a line, but that seemed counterproductive as I was already on New Road and within a mile of the Franklin Avenue Chick-Fil-A.
And then I remembered an idea I had to document driving thru Chick-Fil-A on video to capture the phenomenon of its popularity as proven by the number of people who flock there at lunchtime, the friendly service and the efficiency with which they turn out bag lunches and send customers on their way.
Luckily, my camera was in the pocket on the back side of my driver's seat and I was able to reach it. That's when today's blog became a video blog.
Don't worry, I edited out most of the parts when I was just sitting in line. So this video is 2 minutes, 50 seconds of action as good as it gets in a drive thru line.
