The first 100 people in line on January 12 will get a year supply of Chick-fil-A for free!  People can start lining up at 6:00am on January 11 and is only open to residents in surrounding zip codes and an ID is required.

During the 24-hour wait before the restaurant opens, the restaurant will be providing food and entertainment during what they call a "tailgate atmosphere."  The local franchise operator will also be collecting children's books to donate to a local charity.
