Eldersburg Chick-Fil-A Opening This Week!

This week is the beginning of the end for Arby's and Wendy's in Eldersburg.  There are going to be too many fast food joints in this town to survive the opening of Chick-Fil-A.  That is, of course, unless they do most of their business on Sundays.

The much anticipated opening of Chick-Fil-A will open near the intersection of Route 32 and Barthalow Road.  It looks very nice from the outside.  When I drove by on Saturday, the parking lot was crowded with cars of workers putting the finishing touches on the store.

If you're of the daring type, the first 100 people will get free Chick-Fil-A meals for a year.  I hear that 43 people have been camping out in front of the store since June.  Who in Eldersburg is going to be able to do this on a work night?  We all have jobs or go to school.  It'll definitely be some out-of-town folks camping out.

What do you think the impact of Chick-Fil-A will be?
