Chick-fil-A cancels Cow Appreciation Day. But feel free to wear your cow costume at home
Chick-fil-A, the chicken f ast-food chain boasting bovines as its mascot, has postponed its upcoming Cow Appreciation Day, an annual event in which customers dress up in cow attire to get free food. The event, which was scheduled to take place July 14, was nixed due to safety concerns related to the Covid-19 pandemic. A rise in coronavirus cases has prompted concerns over worker and customer safety in restaurants and other places where people gather. In recent weeks, more than a dozen states have rolled back reopening plans or returned to stricter mandates. Chick-fil-A started celebrating Cow Appreciation Day in 2005.
