Krystal Introduces 2009 Krystal Lovers Hall of Fame Inductees
Krystal will host induction ceremonies for all 10 new members throughout the month of December.
As the saying goes, “Ask and you shall receive.” Krystal did just that this past September as the company looked to its Facebook Fans and Twitter Followers to send in stories for the 2009 Krystal Lovers Hall of Fame. After an overwhelming response, 10 individuals were chosen from the various social web and email submissions to be recognized.
The new class of Hall of Fame members will be featured on his or her very own Krystal Hamburger or Cheese Krystal box, which will be first unveiled at each guests’ exclusive ceremony before being used in the 385 Krystal restaurants across the South in early 2010.
Each box will include an illustration of the Hall of Famer, a quote that describes his or her passion for Krystal as well as personal facts such as the inductee’s hometown and favorite Krystal meal. Each inductee will also have his or her story featured here on Krystalist.com and be honored with an official plaque that will hang in the Hall of Famer’s favorite Krystal restaurant.
The first induction ceremony is for Charlie Capps of Columbus, Ga. and takes place at 1 p.m. on Dec. 10 at the Krystal located at 3029 Manchester Hwy. In attendance will be Capps along with friends and family and representatives from Krystal.
Be sure to check back here for the dates and highlights from each of the Hall of Famers’ induction ceremonies that will continue throughout the month of December. For more information, visit the Krystal Newsroom.

My parents ate Krystal’s Downtown Chattanooga on Market Street. For me, since 1st grade. Now at 58, weekly trips for 12′s or ’24′pack.
The senior breakfast on weekend days. Keep the chicken biscuit alive!
