Eat More Chicken

 

SNAG-0001

The people in the south love them some Chick-fil-a!  They love them some Chick-fil-a something fierce.  A common thing heard around these parts is "I''m gonna get me some chick-fil-a fer lunch."  In fact, I got me some Chick-fil-a fer lunch today.

Let me try and explain this using some real life examples.  However, in order to maintain complete privacy, I will not tell you these friends of our's names.  That might be embarrassing and I hate to embarrass people.

1. Mimberly Muck loves her some Chick-fil-a.  She is always commenting on how nice and professional the various Chick-fil-a drive throughs are - however, some are better than others...  She has a significant relationship with the drive through folks at our local Concord Mills Chick-fil-a.  We are talking about the "greet you by first name and already know what you are going to order" kind of relationship.  We are talking about the exchanging of Christmas cards kind of relationship.  We are talking about the "dunk me in the baptismal" kind of relationship.


2. Mindsey Murner loves her some Chick-fil-a.  Literally not a day goes by where Mindsey does not pack up her toddler daughter Miley and head to the fil-a to get her some sweet tea.  The only problem is that Mindsey has developed a physical addiction to the Chick-fil-a styrafoam cups.  When she drinks out of ANYTHING else (plastic, glass, nalgene, etc) she gags and "spits up."  She can only drink from fil-a cups.  I know - crazy, right?!


3. Maura Monneely loves her some Chick-fil-a.  Upon hearing about McDonalds lame-as* marketing campaign where they pretty much say they invented the southern chicken sandwich (when EVERYONE knows that Chick-fil-a did) she vowed not to sleep, eat, or play with her 5 month old child until she had written a nasty letter to McDonalds expressing her utter disgust.


4. Mim Moster loves her some Chick-fil-a.  She loves her some Chick-fil-a every single day...every day.  One day a few months ago Mim left her Crackberry at home when she left for work.  Her husband saw it on the table and knew that she needed it and would have to come back.  But how do you call someone who is on their way to work if they don't have their phone?  Mim's husband being a smart guy knew that she stopped at the fil-a EVERY day on the way to work so he called the Chick and said will you please tell Mim (yes they know her by first name) to come home and get her phone.  She showed up back at the house about 15 minutes later with her Chick-fil-a sweet tea in tow....

For those Yankees reading this blog (you know who you are you pompous, rude, and "always in a hurry" people group) you need to give the big Chick a chance.  Labor Day is the official "chick-n-strips giveaway day".  Wear that Stillers or Eagles jersey and go to any Chick-fil-a and get yourself a FREE 3-count chick-en-strip!!!!!  So shake a leg and "punt the burger, pass the chikin!!!"
