If only games had this kind of overwhelming demand. There were more than 30K people in the store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The place was packed and it felt like getting water at Publix with a cat 5 on the coast. Especially given it was a random Wednesday at 11 am.

Maybe 1k at the peak but it was a constant flow in and out with people in the corners, at the tables, filling the stands and a line probably 250 deep it was at one point encompassing the entire perimeter of the arena just to stand and pay with people filling multiple totes of merchandise. It was a nice crowd and they were eager to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes as a matter of fact they were on the right hand side of the exit or left hand side of the entrance, depending on your perspective; those were not moving quite at the break neck speed the gear was however.

Wasn't close to 1000, maybe that was later? Some great stuff though. I picked up 2 visors, a nice polo, a tee shirt, basketball shorts, a sweet pair of sneakers, and a green 3/4 sleeve windbreaker (with Birmingham Bowl patch) all for $75. Didn't realize it had a patch until 10 hours later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
