The store's operator, Alex Clark, launched "Lights of Athens" to create family traditions and spread hope, according to the restaurant's Facebook page.

In December 2016, the Athens restaurant went viral after a video reached over 6,000 views.

Clark hung up almost half a million lights this year to make the vision come to life.

New in 2020, customers can tune in to a specific radio station while using the drive-thru or waiting for their orders, to listen to a Chick-fil-A curated playlist.
