As they reiterated well before this year’s Super Bowl, Chick-fil-A refrained from opening inside the Mercedes-Benz Stadium during Sunday’s big game — but that doesn’t mean the location was shuttered completely.

The concessions stall that houses Chick-fil-A was instead transformed into an eatery called “Fries Up,” which specializes in sausages, hot dogs and “loaded fries.”

CHICK-FIL-A OPENS ON SUNDAY FOR SPECIAL REASON

Fries Up reportedly opens in Chick-fil-A’s space most Sundays when the stadium is hosting games or events, according to WSB-TV.

Atlanta’s WXIA-TV, citing SB Nation, further reported that the Fries Up signage at the location is actually installed on the reverse of Chick-fil-A’s signage — a statement seemingly supported in a video shared by Chick-fil-A shortly after opening the Mercedes-Benz location in 2017.

At the time, Chick-fil-A franchise operator Jonathan Hollis explained why the location was even considered, seeing as the stadium primarily hosts football games on Sundays, when Chick-fil-A is traditionally closed.

“We’re open for about 100 events a year that happen right here at the stadium,” said Hollis in a press release. “We have Atlanta United soccer games, concerts, college football games, high school football games, band competitions and more.”

Chick-fil-A’s refusal to open on Sundays keeps in line with a longstanding policy enacted by Chick-fil-A founder Truett Cathy, who decided in 1946 to keep his first restaurant – located in Hapeville, Ga., – closed on that day of the week so “he and his employees could set aside one day to rest and worship if they choose,” according to the company’s website.
