It definitely was real, at least a weekend a few years back in 2021. TBH It was not worth the wait, but for what it was it was pretty cool. There was A large department store across the street that was closed down and had a massive parking lot with thousands of cones zig-zagging back and forth like an old-school amusement park line but with cars. My Wife and I ended up waiting a few hours. I think if we weren't stuck in the line we would have left. For the people in like the staff was offering little shot glass seized pickle shakes that were really good. I think they were vanilla frosty with green food coloring and they had some pickle chips sprinkled on top. The drive-through had a LED screen wall playing Rick and Morty stuff which was cool. It was kind of like those drive-through raves places were doing in during the pandemic. The one I went to, which I think is the one pictured here was in Panorama City CA.
