In Aurora, they even had to call a police officer to control the crowd. Customers waited almost 14 hours to get burgers, fries and drinks.
“Something incredible is happening at the mall right now,” Aurora police tweeted. “We are always ready to help cope with massive queues.”
A later post said there was a 12-hour wait, and another reported that the queue had "doubled over the mall." They estimated the queue length to be between 1,5 and 2 miles (2,4-3,2 km).
In-N-Out expected about 60 hamburgers to sell over the weekend alone.

In Colorado Springs, where the chain's second restaurant opened, there was a similar flow of people. There were even people from other states among them.
“I had the day off, so I decided to just show up and make sure I was first,” Ken Vizzini said. “It was a fun and exciting experience and I don’t regret it.”
Denny Varnick, vice president of In-N-Out operations, said the company was very pleased with the warm welcome.
“I don't know if we've ever felt more welcome. Despite all the expectations and requests from people to open In-N-Out in Colorado, we were pleasantly surprised by the reception,” he said.
