PITTSBURGH — What would you do for free food?

Dozens of people are camping outside in the rain to get a year’s worth.

They’re taking part in the grand opening of a new Chick-fil-A restaurant in Ross Township.

The new franchise location on McKnight Road officially opens at 6 a.m. Thursday.

By Wednesday morning, there were already several tents in the parking lot. Hours later, the campsite had grown.

The first 100 customers in line will receive free Chick-fil-A for a year, or more specifically 52 Chick-fil-A sandwich meals with waffle fries and a drink.

The location is also hosting a book drive for Peebles Elementary School, which is in the North Allegheny School District.
