Sometimes, you just really need to take a pit stop and snag some fast food.

Charlotte, NC resident Wess Cope took a quick detour for some Chick-fil-A nuggets while his wife Lacey was in labor. Cope had recently returned from dropping off his other three kids at school when his wife’s water broke. With this being their fourth child, the couple knew what to expect and remained calm. In fact, while driving to the hospital, Lacey let her husband stop at the fried chicken joint to order some nuggets.

From there, the couple made it to the hospital and everything went smoothly. Their new child, Finn Sullivan Cope, was born a few hours later.

While the actual tale may seem uneventful at first, Finn’s going to have a hilarious birth story to look forward to when he grows up. Additionally, Wess has left us all with a cool hack to speed up Chick-Fil-A’s service.

“If you want Chick-fil-A to move fast, tell them your wife’s in labor. They did.”
