Chick-fil-A's Cow Appreciation Day is Tuesday, July 12

Atlanta, GA -- In one of its most popular and iconic promotions, Chick-fil-A is hosting its annual Cow Appreciation Day on Tuesday, July 12, from 6:30 am to 7 pm.

That means customers have a chance for free food at one of the restaurants' more than 2,000 locations nationwide.

Adult customers who dress in any type of cow attire, whether it’s “head-to-hoof” or sporting a cow-spotted accessory, will be rewarded with a free entrée of their choice. Children can receive a free kid’s meal for dressing in a cow costume.

Here's a list of nearby Chick-fil-A locations:

• 3393 Peachtree Rd
• 3280 Peachtree Rd
• 1197 Peachtree St
• 4285 Roswell Rd
• 1100 Northside Dr
• 3419 Northside Pkwy

Chick-fil-A first introduced the Cow campaign in 1995 as a three-dimensional billboard concept depicting a black-and-white cow sitting atop the back of another cow painting the words “Eat Mor Chikin” on the billboard. Since the first billboard two decades ago, the “Eat Mor Chikin” Cows have reached millions on television, radio, the internet and the occasional water tower to become one of the nation's most recognizable advertising icons and a member of New York’s Madison Avenue Advertising Walk of Fame.

The company was recently named America's favorite fast food restaurant in an American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) report.
