Thousands wait in line to receive holiday food donations

Thousands of people weathered the storm and stood in line, some for hours. They weren't lining up for Black Friday shopping -- they were in line for food.

St. Mary's Food Bank distributed more than 4,000 turkeys and holiday food bags to families who needed the extra help.

Getting soaked in the rain was the least of many people's worries. Thousands of people are facing some tough times and need a helping hand this year. Those who ended up getting rained on did not complain. Because in reality, if they didn't stand out here in the storm, then their families wouldn't have a Thanksgiving meal.
