CHARLESTON, S.C. — While in town for a special screening of his holiday favorite, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, comedy legend Chevy Chase paid a surprise visit to a South Carolina fast food restaurant.
Chase decided to work behind the counter after grabbing a bite to eat at Raising Cane's in Charleston.

Before heading to the drive-thru line, he donned a Santa hat and began collecting orders at the cash register. During his "shift," Chase also took the time to interact with his new teammates and crack jokes with customers.
The chicken fingers and special sauce of Raising Cane's, a fast food company with outlets across the country, are well-known.
The 78-year-old comic was a cast member of "Saturday Night Live" and the show's "Weekend Update" segment's first host. He later appeared in films such as the "National Lampoon's" franchise before returning to television for several seasons on "Community."
