Whenever we go there, I end up paying approximately 35$ for three people to eat fast food. To make matters worse, I am hungry about 2 hours later. It is better IMO to take my $ and go out for some kick azz Mexican food which is tastier at essentially the same price. Chick-fil-A doesn’t have tequila either. Triple negative whammy!

I was a huge fan back in the day. Me and my brother sat on the roof of a houseboat one Friday night about a mile back in a cove on Dale Hollow Lake, no telling how far from civilization. Got into dad's Black Jack and started singing Hank jr. Sang every one we knew. From memory. **Without music or anything. Just us. Lol.

At some point we jumped off the roof on top of a snake slithering across the water, then did the single most dangerous stupidest thing I've done in my whole life without question.

Slalom ski by moonlight hammered.

Tl;dr.

I jumped into the water off a boat going about 40 mph and it fawked me up my feet hit the water and I went flapping and I thought about diving I would have been hurt. And another time we walked up to a swing that was huge I grabbed it pulled it back and took off did a flip and dove in the lake that impressed everyone but just stupid I had never been there before and didn't know the water.

Chick fil a is fast food. Saying it's glorified fast food is contradictive or some other fancy word I'd need rust bucket to help me with.

How is it overrated? Seriously? I mean I don't "get out much", what's the word on the street that they don't live up to? I know I've never in my whole life been to a drive thru that operated with such efficiency. Ever.

Last time I was there me and a friend got two chicken sandwiches, 2 fries and 2 drinks and it was $16 and change.

I'm not arguing, I'm just asking.

When I think major overrated, I think Macaroni and cheese, Megan Rapinoe and Joe Biden.

Thank you!! The lemonade and ice cream cones at CFA are the best items on their menu. Someone please attempt to change my mind.

I wasn't trying to change your mind, truth be known, sitting thinking about it I can only remember eating at chick fil a twice in my life.

I was so impressed with the service I didn't notice if the chicken sammich was dry. The waffle fries were just what they should've been, at a drive thru.

You alluded to their service and it is good. I just think that the hype they receive from everybody I work and to church with gets old. I mentioned earlier I pay around 35 bucks for our family of three to eat there. For that amount of money, I would rather go to a sit-down restaurant.

Besides Waffle house, what sit down restaurant can 3 eat for $35? I assume for $35 at chick fil a you all 3 had dessert? Do you tip?

I tip of course and typically order ice cream for three. I would expect to pay a little extra at a regular restaurant and be fine with it. We could go to cracker barrel, Monterrey (local Mexican place), or just about any Chinese restaurant in west Knoxville and be more satisfied than eating at CFA paying close to the same amount.

You don't spend an extra $50 in the old country store at Cracker Barrel on candy sticks, taffy and smoked ham?

Dead to me. Again.

They had a little cooler with ice at the hostess station, and I was just about to put my hand on, I think, cream soda? The bottle looked very nostalgic.
Right as my finger tips touched the bottle, someone hollars HEY! I literally shook all over like I was in trouble. Damn! Haha! It was my sister.

I saw a nifty kitty cat sweater at the store a few years ago but did on purchase it. Missed out on spending 25 dollars on a sweater unfortunately.

We usually put in at Cedar Hill but sometimes Dale Hollow Boat dock. But then we headed up around the two islands.

I used to know it well enough to ski in the dark, drunk and stoned, from around Horseshoe Creek to DHBD to pick up guests.

My best friend in life - his grandfather lived in Willow Grove before they flooded it. A pontoon ride was a history lesson with him. Wonderful man.
