A man in West Texas made a recent visit to his local Chick-fil-A a memorable one for all the customers who had stopped by. 

Instead of just paying for his food and heading out, he dropped $1,000 in order to pay for diners who were also in the drive-thru behind him at the Chick-fil-A in Abilene, West Texas, according to KTXS-TV. 

When employees asked the man about himself all he said was his name - John. According to employees John said he donated the money in order to make everyone's Monday better.

The franchise owner, Brian LaCroix, says the cash was enough to pay for drive-thru food for people in 88 vehicles over about an hour.

"He paid for 88 cars in a little over an hour," LaCroix said. "He pretty much bought everyone's meal in the drive-thru for a little over an hour."

The man handed over 10 $100 bills to pay for the meals at about 7 pm Monday night.

Chick-Fil-A team member Duste Wolf worked Monday night and saw everything.

"One lady actually cried because she had a really tough day," Wolf said. "She had a lot of bad stuff happen to her."

The donor's identity has not yet been revealed.
