Arby's Oshawa

A 200-strong “Arby's Army” gathered at an Arby's location in Ontario, and the restaurant's employees were everywhere.

Who knew so many people loved Arby's? The Oshawa location of the fast food chain (which notably has no locations in Toronto) certainly had a lot to offer on Saturday, March 9, when at least 200 of the chain's fans showed up for a well-deserved roast beef sandwich.

The gathering was not a protest over the lack of a Toronto Arby's location, as previously reported, but simply a mass gathering of people who simply wanted to get their hands on some highly coveted sandwiches.

The collective of good, hard-working Arby's lovers were welcomed with open arms by the staff at the Taunton Road location, who decorated the restaurant with balloons.

The restaurant also gave away merchandise such as hats, mugs and aprons to enthusiastic guests and hosted a spinner game in the restaurant.

It's like Woodstock if all hippies were hungry Ontarians and Jimmi Hendrix was a roast beef sandwich.

Arby's OshawaDid I mention the event also raised $1,200 for a local women and children's shelter? Maybe we should all eat more Arby's.

It is currently unknown when and where the next Arby's Arby gathering will be, but whenever it is, I might just be there. Clearly they are doing something right.
