Check out the article here on Kotaku — funny stuff. Some of the Kotaku kids went to check out what was happening down at the Burbank Best Buy and apparently twenty people formed a line and had been waiting there……FOR FOUR WHOLE DAYS…..and the cops made em go home. Talk about pissed off? I’d be livid. But the thing that I can’t understand for the life of me is this: Why would folks go to such extremes to wait on a Best Buy line, but just a month ago when EB Games let you preorder your PS3, the same kind of madness didn’t ensue? Perhaps folks want to wait ONLY to insure that they’ll walk home with a unit, but not to pre-order? I dunno. All I know is that this is pretty messed up for the folks who got sent home. (And pretty funny! I’m sorry, I can’t help it. Funniest post on the Kotaku forum was from reader Vexorg, “How to waste three days of your precious time on this planet in three easy steps!” Hilarious.)
Read the story for more detail on how the hierarchy at Best Buy came out to confront Kotaku.
Holy SHIT!!
they didn’t send ‘em home in my area. I’m near Philadelphia and these little bastards are everywhere!
