A Florida man went viral after riding a horse through a Chick-fil-A drive-thru, surprising workers.Felipe Delamora shared a video of the unusual visit taken on March 21, which shows him riding a horse through the drive-thru of the fast-food restaurant. The video was recorded through his glasses and went viral.“I was riding back, and on the way home, I was thirsty, so I stopped at the Chick-fil-A drive-in and had an amazing interaction with the employees,” De La Mora said in explaining the moment.The camera captured the back of the horse’s head as it walked through an alley. As de la Mora approached the ordering area, the staff expressed surprise and excitement at the unexpected customer.“What’s wrong with you? How are we doing today,” said a worker named Mike. He and a colleague then asked if they could record the moment, to which De La Mora responded: “Do it.”The exchange continues. An employee asked the horse’s name, and de la Mora revealed its name was Gitano. Another worker seemed speechless as the situation unfolded.At one point, a car approached the driveway behind them. “It’s best if no one comes into this driveway,” Mike said, hoping to avoid any disruption. When the car chose a different lane, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Yeah, yeah, yeah,” clenching his fists.Still amused, Mike looked up at De La Mora and added, “Please tell me you’re getting food.”According to De La Mora, staff inside the restaurant were aware of the horse’s arrival. One staff member mentioned that they had been talking about the animal after spotting it on the camera system.The video cut off before the order was completed, and de la Mora later explained that the glasses he was using to film had run out of battery. Despite the abrupt ending, he praised the crew, writing: “[Michael] The rest of the staff are great! “The video has since sparked a backlash online. Mike himself appeared in the comments, writing: “I’m completely shocked, I’m a worker.”
