Alabama Chick-fil-A, jewelry store engage in ‘sign war’: ‘It’s really a lot of fun’

A food in Alabama has found itself in the midst of a battle — for the best sign. 

Jeff Dennis Jewelers in Gardendale, us-regions, has started a “sign war” with a nearby Chick-fil-A that has turned into a hilarious back and forth between the two establishments. 

The jewelry storea> threw down the gauntlet last week when it posted a picture of its digital sign advertising its new drive-thru window on Facebook. <

“Our drive thru is faster than Chick-fil-A’s,” the sign said, according to the picture. 

Jeff Dennis Jewelers captioned the photo: “1,2,3,4 I declare a sign war.”

It didn’t take long for the Chick-fil-A to respond. 

A few days after the jewelry store’s sign went up, the Chick-fil-A had changed its own sign to say: “Overflow parking located at Jeff Dennis Jewelers!”

The fast food location posted a picture of its own sign on Facebook with the caption: “5, 6, 7, 8…… it’s time to retaliate!”

Jeff Dennis Jewelers even reposted the picture, commenting: “Well lookie here. They weren’t too chicken to play.”

But the battle didn’t stop there. 

The following day, the jewelry store changed its sign again to say: “Gold nuggets are better than chicken nuggets,” according to another Facebook post.

However, Chick-fil-A appears to have already made its move, because the grass in front of the jewelry store had already been decorated with paper cows and the words: “Eat Mor Chikin!,” Chick-fil-A’s tagline, the pictures showed.

As expected, the ceasefire was truly only temporary. On Monday, Jeff Dennis posted a picture of the grass in front of the Chick-fil-A, which had been decorated with a sign that said: “Buy Mor Diamonds” with an arrow pointing towards the jewelry store.

The store captioned the photo: “Chick Fil A, your lawn has never looked better. Yard of the week! It’s My Pleasure!” another nod to one of the fast food chain’s common phrases.
