Chick-fil-A wanted to build a new, larger restaurant in a small town in Tennessee.
But residents fought back, saying the "mega" restaurant would increase traffic.
AdvertisementChick-fil-A had big plans to build a large-scale modern restaurant with an indoor playground and dual-drive-thru lanes in a small Tennessee town.
But the fast-food juggernaut underestimated the tenacity of locals, who rallied against the proposed "mega" Chick-fil-A in Collierville, whose population is just over 50,000.
The proposed restaurant, a relocation of an existing smaller Chick-fil-A, was billed by the company as the "latest greatest prototype Chick-fil-A has" in its system.
