Dress like a cow, save some moolah

Forget that it's like a thousand degrees outside. Friday, Chick-fil-A on Dowlen Road will reward customers "fully dressed as cows, from head to hoof" with a free meal.

Sure, you'll need to bring clothes to change into before heading back to work or wherever it is you go to reclaim your dignity, but dressing as a cow in public is sure to entertain.

For those who have too much pride to come cow clad, Chick-fil-A will reward customers wearing cow attire, such as a cow-spotted scarf, purse, hat or other accessory with a free entree.

But wait, there's more!
