Not to be picky, but that could not have been today since the guy kept saying it was around noon.  I can't imagine any burger is worth that sort of wait.

C'mon, everyone loves a good In and Out.

It takes all kinds. I'd just as soon go to "Whataburger" , "Burger Detour"  or
Lot- 'O' -Burger" and go in & out fast.

I find it hard to believe all those cars in the video  were waiting for a burger joint- it looked like there was a shopping center there too, the traffic may have been going into that. Most people only get a hour for lunch anyhoo.

I don't know, for a lot of people "In and Out" is a religion.  I know I pick it up every time I go west.

You must not have seen the Burger traffic out here in B.A. when the Jack in the Box opened at 71st and 145th. It was at least Three Months before I was ever able to go and see if it was much different than when it was here years ago. It's not. And I havent been back.

He wasn't.  He lives in Omaha.

If that's the restaurant near BA Wal-Mart I think that was a Carl's Burger joint before, Nope I did not see the traffic there. Across the street is a Sonic Drive-in and that's always busy.

Carl's Jr = 145th and is now some hole-in-the-wall
Jack in the box = 71st, Major national chain, first NE oklahoma location in decades
Sonic = 71st and not across from ex-Carl's Jr

It's tough to tell on Google maps in a library in Omaha.

It was ridiculous. A friend of mine dragged me out there one day shortly after it opened because he wanted their fish tacos. To be fair, despite the incredibly long line (inside), we were served in under 10 minutes.

The funny thing is that Chick-Fil-A is like that every.single.day, both here and in Fayetteville. In Fayetteville, they actually have people out in the parking lot directing traffic every day at lunch. I haven't seen that here, but I learned long ago to not desire to eat there for lunch.

nathanm. What is it about Chick-Fil-A that I am missing ?
My kids and a friend of mine are just nuts about that food. Boneless chicken, ok i get it, but does it have some kind of mind or mood altering substance that make people almost sit up and beg to go there with just a mention of the name ?
Is it because there are few of them around or is it just that d*mn good ?

On promotional days they have had two people in the parking lot working the line taking orders
