On Sunday, Chick-fil-A further cemented itself as America's most beloved fast food franchise. In response to the nightmarish Atlanta airport blackout, the massively successful franchise broke its own rule about keeping the doors closed on Sundays and fed the masses.
Sunday night, the City of Atlanta notified the thousands of passengers whose flights were canceled amid a chaotic blackout at the airport that Chick-fil-A would be providing food for those taking the shuttle service to the Georgia International Convention Center to stay overnight.

Chick-fil-A franchises nationwide usually remain closed on Sunday on account of the Christian faith of the company's founder, Truett Cathy. It was those same religious beliefs that resulted in Chick-fil-A being targeted by activists in 2012 as "anti-LGBT" because of the ownership's support of traditional marriage and opposition to same-sex marriage. The boycott campaign against Chick-fil-A resulted in a backlash of support, and the company's 2012 profits soared.
