Things are all cleaned up Thursday outside the new Chick-fil-A Store off Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. This after more than 100 chicken lovers camped for hours to get one year's worth of free food.
Hundreds of people and dozens of tents could be seen filling the parking lot as early as Tuesday night. The doors of Chick-fil-A opened just after 6 a.m. Thursday. "They gave us a bunch of high fives," said chicken lover Eric Curtiss. "I think they gave us a bunch of coupons. I hope that's what's in the box. I'm gonna count them when I get home," he said.
Chick-fil-A officials told 11 News even folks not apart of the first 100, got a month's worth of free food just for camping out.
Richard Coley was first in line. He's no stranger to these Chick-Fil-A camp outs. "Well, this is a mini trip. I'm hitting three grand openings and three first 100s for a total of six grand openings in a total of two and a half weeks."
A friend of Coley even made him a shirt that says, "I sleep in Chick-Fil-A parking lots."

To crazy john: As you were NOT at the Garden of the Gods store opening, I would direct you to READING my previous post of Nov. 18! To lincoln: If Melissa is REALLY a size 20 & 320lbs, she must be tall and big boned - don't mess with her! Richard was the 'biggest' person at the GotG store opening, and having been there, and seen everyone, I know she couldn't actually be that big - Being nasty is only proving your LACK of intelligence and civility. GROW UP Already!
