Sonic

About two months ago we noticed that a new building was being put up between our house and the freeway.  After a while we realized it was going to be a Sonic.  Yeah!  They've got great shakes and it's just kinda fun to eat there.

Tuesday we were coming home from work and school and noticed that traffic was moving REALLY slow on 43rd.  An ambulance had passed us not that long before, so we assumed that there was an accident ahead of us and that's what was causing the delay.  Wrong!

After sitting in traffic for about 10/15 minutes, Erik looks at me and says "I think the delay and line is for Sonic."  I couldn't believe that a delay like that could be caused by a new restaurant being opened.  However, once we go in the right hand lane and had no problems moving down 43rd St., I saw that Erik was right.  

Not only was the delay caused by Sonic, but people were waiting in a line over 50+ cars long that wrapped around the whole strip mall.  There was even a news story about it that can be found here.
