Cruisin' the Dub returned to the Swift Current A&W on Thursday and was positively packed for the whole show.
From 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., the line-up in the drive-through was non-stop. Inside, wait times were as long as 30 minutes as orders were flooding the registers.
It wasn't just because people were hungry. For the entire day, every Teen Burger sold saw $2 donated to the MS Society of Canada.
Perneet Singh, restaurant manager for the Swift Current A&W, was thrilled to see the event packed with cars and people, as it is historically the biggest event of the year for the franchise.
"Everybody is super excited," said Singh. "Swift Current is a small town with a big heart."
The Rogue Cruisers car club was in attendance, with multiple cars on display. People were also dressed in 1950s era costumes, matching their classics and showing off some vintage style.
There was also live music being performed by After Five, a local band that all have day jobs, meaning they only get to play after 5 p.m.
"They're playing 50s and 60s rock music for us," said Singh. "Everybody seems to be enjoying it."
There was even a prize handed out for best costume.
Results were not available at the time of the interview.
Singh thanked all of the sponsors who helped turn the event into a success, and thanked everyone who made it out and bought a Teen Burger in support of finding a cure for MS.
