I am proud to say that I have never ever been to a Chick-Fil-A. I definitely will not be going in the future.
I have a friend who is proud to have never gone to McDonalds. I don't get that.
I don't eat there - the food is pretty bad to my taste - but proud? Maybe I'm having a Vizzini moment here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHVjs4aobqs&feature=relat...

Sure. He/she can be proud. It is no small feat to have not been to a McDonald's if you live in the U.S. I don't know too many Americans who can say that.

I don't get it. Since you pasted a dictionary definition, I'm assuming you don't think the word "proud" should apply here, but I can't for the life of me see why you would think that. Definition 2 seems to be spot-on for this circumstance.
