…for promoting National Sandwich Day.
Which occurs on a Sunday.
When they're closed.
Because apparently, that's enough to make Baby Jesus cry, or... something?
Oh, did you click on this thread thinking maybe they apologized because of their history of horrific anti-LGBT promotion?
Chick-fil-A fans firmly have it ingrained in their minds – and stomachs – that the chicken chain is closed on Sundays.
But the Atlanta-based fast-food chain apparently forgot when it sent an email to some of its loyalty members this week.
"Calling all sandwich lovers," the email that also promoted the Chick-fil-A One program said, "Some prefer it grilled, others fancy the original. No matter which Chick-fil-A sandwich you love, order yours on November 3 for National Sandwich Day."
This year, the made-up food holiday held annually on Nov. 3 falls on a Sunday, which also happens to be the day that rival Popeyes' chicken sandwich – the one that prompted this summer's Chicken Sandwich War – returns to restaurants.
Another e-mail followed Thursday... "We recently sent an email that included a message about National Sandwich Day, which naturally we were very excited about," the email reads. "We didn't realize it falls on Sunday when we are closed. We apologize for the confusion and hope to see you soon (Monday-Saturday)."
Though Popeyes poked fun at the policy, Kanye West recently rapped about it in a song on his new album Jesus Is King called "Closed on Sunday."
"Closed on Sunday /
You my Chick-fil-A /
Hold the selfies /
Put the 'gram away /
Get your family /
Now hold hands and pray,"
West, 42, raps in the song.
More at the link. Cancel Kanye West for... whatever the hell that trash is, if old.
