So, I was calling around to various stores to see how they were going to be handling the PS3 launch, and to check on how many units each store was expecting, so I could determine where I wanted to try to secure a unit. I called a local Target (not a super center), and they said they already had some campers out tonight. I needed to go get some stuff from the store anyway, so I ran down there to check it out. On my way down there I glanced over at Circuit City to see if they too had some campers (which they did not). Got to Target, and sure enough, there was a husband/wife combo, with a friend in tow, who were sitting outside of the store. Two tents were pitched right by the front door and everything.
On my way home, I decided to swing by Best Buy as well to see if they had any campers. Lo and behold, there were two large tents (by large, I mean your deluxe 8' tall, week in the wilderness tents).
Some lardass dude was sitting behind one of the tents with a grill and some plastic ware, and was enjoying his dinner. As I drove past the tents, I could see the end of the line, and to my complete and utter shock, I saw...
5 kids, who were anywhere from 5 years old to about 12, sitting on lawn chairs.
The dude had recruited his entire family to indulge in his madness! Now, I ask you. What kind of moron would bring his small kids to camp out in a tent for three nights in front of a store, in order to secure a PS3? WTF?!?! Don't these people have any sense at all? Who are these people that don't have jobs, or responsibilites, and can afford to just wait in a line for three days? Armageddon must be near. This is the damndest thing I have seen in a long time.
