Via Instapundit, "FLIPPING THE BIRD TO RAHM: Chicago Chick-Fil-A Mobbed." (Via Memeorandum.) Added: From Lonely Conservative, "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day Appears to Be a Big Success."

And Legal Insurrection, "Chicagoans hungry to flip the bird to Rahm, nicely," and "Legal Insurrection readers’ Chick-fil-A photos."

Update: This is big nationwide. WND reports, "AMERICANS FLOCK TO SUPPORT CHICK-FIL-A."

And at The Other McCain, "I Love the Smell of #ChickFilA At Noon. It Smells Like ... Liberty," and "Just Another Random Coincidence: Bomb Threat Shuts Down W. Va. Chick-fil-A." More at Memeorandum.
