When it comes to free food, some dedicated Americans will camp outside for hours.

Chick-Fil-A opened its newest Valley location Wednesday near 59th Avenue and Thunderbird Road in Glendale.

With each new opening, the fast-food chicken chain typically offers a free year of Chick-Fil-A to the first 100 people in line. With each opening, people line up.

On Tuesday, Glendale police tweeted out a photo showing people camped out in tents and perched under umbrellas to sleep comfortably throughout the night and stay cool under the sun.

Chick-Fil-A- says the new location will bring 80 jobs to the area.
