I was destined to get a PS3 on Friday. I went to all the local electronics stores and there were lines. I ended up finding a Circuit City that had one tent, 5 cars total, and then a few people in chairs. At all of the other stores the nerds were awake and partying like crazy.
Well, at this Circuit City camp.. they were all sleeping. My buddy and I arrived at 4:15am... and the store opened at 8:00am. We just took out our lawn chairs and went to the front of the line (in front of the first tent) and hung out. At about 6:45am one of the nerds came out of the tend and started getting all hissy pissy about us being in front of him. He said, "bullshit, I've been waiting here since Monday!" I pointed at the sign and said, "Sorry dude, you've been waiting in the wrong spot. That sign says 'the line starts here'." He started swearing and then he screamed for his dad who was in the tent. His dad started making threats and I explained that they were waiting in the wrong spot. His dad said, "There is no way this tent would fit in that area." My friend replied, "Well, don't bring so much shit next time... and, stop getting so pissed off you are third in line and still getting one."
Anyways, the doors opened at 7:30am and the manager came out to give us our tickets. They started bitching about us being there and the manager said, "Sorry, you guys gotta figure it out. When I opened the doors they were first in line." There was one fat kid that tried to challenge us, but my friend said, "So, what are you gonna do about it?" Then he backed down.
I sorta feel bad... two of the kids that have been waiting since Monday didn't get shit. But, I guess that's what they get for being 5'6 and weighing in at 120lbs. Now, they will learn that the bigger asshole with more muscles gets his way.
Sold the system on eBay for $2,045.00 + $75.00 for shipping. I feel like a giant ass... but for $1,400 I will ruin any kids week.
