Wendy's Owner Stood with Chick-Fil-A BUT....

He was forced to take down the sign.

Call this number:  (828) 262-1811.  It is the phone number to the Wendy's in Boone, NC.  The restaurant owner, who runs many many Wendy's stood in support of Chick-Fil-A and Wendy's made him take down the sign.  Leave him voice mail if you support his stand.  It is time for the silent majority to speak up!

BOONE, NC (WBTV/WIS) - 

The owner of the largest Wendy's restaurants franchise in the world showed his support for competitor Chick-fil-a with a message on some signs in the Carolinas. WBTV has learned of at least one Wendy's sign in Columbia, South Carolina that read "We stand with Chick-fil-A" on Wednesday morning.

A couple of hours later, that sign was taken down. Jim Furman, CEO of Tarheel Capital based out of Boone, NC, who owns the restaurant and 74 other Wendy's said the company decided to post the message.

Furman tells WBTV's sister station in Columbia that he doesn't know how many of the company's restaurants posted the message, but he says it was more than just the one.

Furman said the message supporting Chick-fil-A was taken down because the company "felt it was time to go back to their marketing message."
