Former President Donald Trump stopped inside of an Atlanta Chick-fil-A on Wednesday, April 10, 2024, to put in an enormous order for his supporters on hand. The Vine City Chick-fil-A has been in operation for a few years now as being a part of a Arthur Blank-led revitalization plan.
Trump was on town to participate in a fundraiser to help pay for some adverse judgments that went against him in a New York court.
At the Chick-fil-A, Trump told the associates that “Is business good? Making a lot of money? So everyone can get rich, right?” He want on to ask them if they liked each other.
What Did Trump Order at the Atlanta Chick-fil-A
Trump ordered “30 milkshakes” and also “some chicken, that way we can take care of the customers.” Assuming he didn’t get a discount, the milkshakes alone would cost $150. With chicken, we’re talking double that at least.
Here’s Trump in action in the ATL:
Trump is obviously familiar with the food, but does he know about Chick-fil-A’s secret menu? Maybe we can put him up on game.
Final Bite
Chick-fil-A has consistently been voted one of the top fast-food eateries in America. Along with solid customer service and a secret menu, the restaurant may not be the trendiest but it gets the job done.
Metro Atlanta’s food and drink scene continues to grow with no stops on the horizon. Ready to try something new?

What Is The Purpose of Production Codes?
You may be wondering what the purpose of production codes are? They are two-fold:
For one, the production code serves as nothing more than a working title. As an example, a movie about The Hulk may be called “Green” or “Green Guy.”
On the other hand, such a movie may get a production code simple for identification purposes as the film’s creators finalize a title.
Atlanta has become a $9.5 billion movie industry in recent years and has been a favorite location for TV productions since the state enacted generous tax breaks for film companies that agree to shoot locally. Projects from CBS, NBC, HBO, BET and more are slated to shoot in the metro area in 2018-19 and the foreseeable future.
Many local filmmakers are buying their own equipment and shooting films throughout Georgia.

Atlanta’s own “Hammering” Hank Aaron will soon be immortalized with his very own commemorative stamp.
The U.S. Postal Service says it will honor the Atlanta Braves baseball legend for his many contributions and off the field.
This stamp celebrates the life and career of Aaron (1934–2021), a giant both on and off the field, who rose from humble beginnings to rewrite the record books while prevailing in the face of racism.
The stamp art features a digital painting of Aaron as a member of the Atlanta Braves, showing his famous right-handed batting stance from the waist up. The selvage showcases a digital painting of Aaron watching the ball he had just hit for his record-breaking 715th home run on April 8, 1974.
Greg Breeding, an art director for USPS, designed the stamp and pane with original art by Chuck Styles.
The Hank Aaron stamp will be issued in panes of 20. As a Forever stamp, it will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail 1‑ounce price.
The official first day of issue and stamp dedication ceremony location will be announced at a later date.
Aaron, considered by many as the greatest hitter in Major League Baseball, passed away in January 2021 after an illness.
How To Order the Hank Aaron Stamp
Customers can purchase the Hank Aaron stamps and other products through the Postal Store at usps.com/shopstamps, by calling 844-737-7826, by mail through USA Philatelic or at Post Office locations nationwide.
For officially licensed stamp products, shop the USPS Officially Licensed Collection on Amazon.

Inside at the bar, you can see multiple screens from several vantage points while you eat and drink.Here’s why one Google reviewer says this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta:: “This is a really fun place for all age groups. If golf is not your thing, they also offer table tennis or ping pong upstairs and pool tables downstairs. The putting area is spacious. Of course it is outdoors, but they offer large heat lamps directly over the seating area. There are two levels to the seating area. The first is a high bar with chairs. The second is a u-shaped outdoor sofa with a center table. All food and drink orders can be placed from your bay. For each game, each player gets 20 chances to “put the ball in the hole”. You can take all 20 swings in a row or rotate players as you’d like. If you aren’t interested in playing any of the game options, you can also dine in or have a round at the bar. Enjoy!”
