Thousands of Outkast and Waffle House fans waited an hour-plus Friday to shop Atlanta merch and order from a souvenir André 3000- and Big Boi-themed menu.

Zoom in: Atlanta police closed the street near Waffle House's Centennial Olympic Park location to accommodate the line of people who wrapped around the block to celebrate the two Atlanta institutions.

The limited-edition collaboration features bucket hats, hoodies, aprons, "Gator Belts and Patty Melts" shirts, coffee mugs and more.

Pro tip: Fans can also purchase the collab merchandise through Outkast's official online store while supplies last.
