Chick-fil-A isn't OK with working on Sundays, but they do seem to be OK with dads dating daughters.

June 18, the day before Father's Day is Chick-fil-A Daddy Daughter Date Night. So, if you're currently dating your dad, know that starting at 5 p.m. that day, 70 Chick-fil-A restaurants in the Dallas-Fort Worth area will welcome you with open arms.

A couple gems from Chick-fil-A's press release about the event:

"During this special evening, fathers and daughters are encouraged to spend some time together while they enjoy dinner, great conversation and several special activities.

"There is no admission fee for the event. The only cost is for the food the daddy-daughter pair order."

The press release suggests that you visit daddydaughterdate.com/DFW for more details and to make reservations. So we did, even though our firewall thought the content was probably going to be NSFW.

Of course a romantic theme is appropriate. Chris Hansen, please be attending this event.

She created and hosts the Dallas event, Meat Fight, which is a barbecue competition and fundraiser that benefits the National MS Society. Last year, the event raised $100,000 for people living with MS, and 750 people could be seen shoving sausage links into their faces. And one time, she won a James Beard Award for Humor in Writing. That was pretty cool.
