I’ve always heard about how grand Chik-fil-a store openings are. Up until about 2 years ago I didn’t know they had stand-alone stores, but the mallrat staple has now grown up and become a giant.
A new store opening in Yukon, and as with EVERY Chik-fil-a store opening, the first 100 people at the store receive free food for a year.
FREE
CHICKEN
FOR
A
YEAR!!!
How did I never know about this until a few months ago. It is totally worth risking hypothermia for free food! SO… Feeling compelled and challenged by the bait of free grub I loaded up in the new Ford Escape (which I need a name for, I want Skellator, but my wife won’t let me) and headed to Yukon.
I get there and there is already close to 150 people waiting for the grand opening. I stood in line for a few hours hoping the weak would fall from the ranks, but free chicken was apparently too compelling to get people to leave.
Chik-fil-a is damn good, so I get it… there is a new store opening on I-240 in a few weeks, I am ALL OVER that!
Later in the weekend, I took my wife to see a movie, and because of a Wedding/DJ gig, we had to go earlier in the day. We settled on “Where the Wild Things Are”. I was intrigued having read the books as a tyke, but I really didn’t remember much of the storyline which didn’t affect my view on the movie.
It is NOT a kids movie, maybe a tweens and up, but I think the average 5-7 year old might be scared by the “Blair Witch” camera work, and be lost by the story.
It is DEEP, it hits hard at how divorce affects kids, and it is interesting how I connected with the story. With that aside, there really isn’t much to it. I kept waiting for something to happen, and it really never did. Decent movie, but I doubt it will be added to the DVD collection.
