Line For Colorado’s First In-N-Out Estimated At 14 Hours

AURORA, Colo. – Officers with the Aurora Police Department said the line for Colorado’s first In-N-Out Burger stretched for nearly two miles with an estimated wait time of 14 hours.

The restaurant opened Friday in the state’s third-largest city, while another location opened in Colorado Springs.

“It’s official, traffic is double double animal style right now all around the mall,” officers tweeted.

It’s official, traffic is double double animal style right now all around the mall. We are on hand helping manage the massive traffic response. Be patient and be kind. Maybe support another local eatery today and In-n-Out another day if traffic is too hectic for you. https://t.co/p2wlfhTvVM pic.twitter.com/e9QxnFaRdF

🍔🍟#FunFact A lot of people have asked, "How long was the line?" It's hard to estimate. What we know is the line wrapped around the mall twice, and there were some nearby hwy backups. Right now we estimate the line to be 1.5-2miles long & the wait is now 14 hours.

At a 14-hour wait, Coloradans could have driven to any In-N-Out along the Wasatch Front and flown back to Denver International Airport before the final cars are served, while shaving over four hours off the wait.

Police marked the final cars and said they would be served around 2 a.m. Saturday.

In-N-Out currently has locations throughout California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Texas and Oregon.
