The lack of organization shows why they are closing. Jeff is a nice guy but he is just standing at the door with another gentleman. He should be helping to check people out quicker. He is wasting his and everyone elses time just standing around telling everyone on his cell phone that the store is jammed packed and how the pewter report history artcile did not give him his proper credit as the original owner. He was more concerned with doing telephone interviews and getting people to cheer in the store than helping getting them out the door. People were getting pissed off. I just decided to leave.

Why should he bother to help them check out quicker? Where were these vultures when he was trying to stay afloat ... People want a helluva bargain AND not be inconvenienced ...

I see what you are saying, but I am of the mind set if you are going to do something, do it right. He should not blame his business models failure on the patrons.

TBO reported that it was pandemonium Monday with an officer directing traffic out front. Really sucks for us Bucs/Bulls fans outside of the area who have few options for unique Bulls products online.

Traffic mentioned was from 2003.

I plan on stopping in Saturday morning to see what's left.

My bad. But it seems from the reports here, it sounds like they need a cop in the store.

I wonder who's taking over the merch sales on gamedays at Rayjay...

Would assume Outfitters will get the gig.

Barnes & Noble is handling sales at sporting events now.

Oh great, so basically the school has a monopoly on it now through the bookstore.

kind of a non-issue imo-- don't think I've ever bought any fan merchandise at the stadium

If you are a XXL or larger then yes

I stopped by there this afternoon and there were several mediums and XXL stuff. I'm not surprised they are going out of business though...even with a 50% off sale, most of their polos are still about $30. To pay $50-$60 regular price for a USF polo is ridiculous. Also, their new location though is as crammed as their old location, so if you liked the store previously, you should feel right at home.
