A PETA protest outside a KFC drew extra customers to the restaurant. I think a lot of the problem was chosing Logan, Utah as the site of the protest; it seems to me that they could have picked a location in a more sympathetic area.

My favorite quote: ” ‘’I think there’s a place in this world for all of God’s creations … right next to the mashed potatoes,’’ said Rusty Smith, a KFC customer who sat on a patch of grass outside the restaurant with a group of co-workers, watching the protest.” Ouch.
