I was at the Paramus Park Mall CFA, too. The video was taken earlier in the day than when I was there, but the line still went down that hallway when I arrived around 8:50 p.m.

I posted an AAR on another thread:

I went to the CFA in the Paramus Park Mall, Paramus, NJ. I arrived at the mall around 8:40 pm. The food court is on the upper level. As I was ascending the escalator I saw (part of) the line and thought it wasn't too long. It was on the other side of the upper level. As I approached what I thought was the end of the line I noticed that it turned twice and entered the hallway behind the stores! It went down to the end of the first hallway, turned the corner and continued about halfway down the next hallway. It was 8:50 pm when I reached the end of the line.
As I was waiting in line more than one person who had earlier waited in the line came back to see how it was going after their meal. They said it took them about 1.5 hours to get to the front of the line. The wife of one couple that came back counted approximately 550 people in front of me. The mall closed at 9:30, but CFA said they would try to serve everyone in line. Shortly after I made it to the end of the line, the mall security stopped others from getting in line.
Some of us near the end of the line wondered if there would be any food by the time we got to the cashiers. The security guy at the end of the line said that CFA received a large delivery yesterday. It sounds to me like they were prepared for today. As the others had said, it took about an hour and a half to traverse the line and place my order. The last person in line had placed and received their order around 10:30 p.m. After which a round of applause erupted. I, as well as others in line behind me, had never been to a CFA. Some came from all over NY state. Earlier in the day Fox News had been there.
FWIW, I ordered the spicy chicken deluxe sandwich, a small order of fries, a peach milkshake and a large unsweetened iced tea (for later). I concur with many positive reviews about the food. For fast food it was very good. I tend to avoid fast food these days, but I will make a point of visiting the other CFA stores in NJ. Mmmm, can't wait.

Thanks for the post! It was a pretty amazing experience being there yesterday wasn’t it? My only regret is that we didn’t think to go up and down the lines and ask if anyone was a veteran so that we could move them to the front of the line. I am sure that noone in that nice crowd of people would have objected! We also should have started a couple of good USA chants. Well, next time we will be better prepared. This was the report I posted last night on another thread:

I just got back from the CFA in the Paramus Park Mall in New Jersey. It was a nice, ahem, leisurely 50 mile drive in rush hour traffic each way, but boy was it worth it! There where thousands of nice, polite, motivated people who waited on line for about an hour to make their point and buy some delicious chicken sandwiches. To everyone’s credit, I did not see anyone balk at the line, or get on line and then leave. I met some very nice conservative people who were there to support Mr. Cathy’s First Amendment Right’s and to show the liberals and Obama that we have had enough of this crap! It really was encouraging to see so many like-minded people spontaneously mobilized for a common cause. As someone on line said: We came for chicken sandwiches and a Sweet Tea Party broke out!
