Melanie_72 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 That is very sad!! I heard about it on the news earlier. It is so ridiculous that some people act like maniacs turning violent just to catch a sale, it is so not worth it!! I wouldn't be in those crowds for anything.

Virginia Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 That's just crazy and so sad I have never done the Black Friday store shopping thing. I love shopping during the holidays but hate crazy shopping crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I went to get my Zeppelin tickets in 77 they bent steel barricades and trampled a couple of girls, they weren't killed but I'm sure they didn't enjoy it They did say the guy had a heart attack and fell to the ground. Remember the night club fire in Rhode Island a while back killed like 100 people? Once a crowd gets rolling you can't stop or you will get stomped. But yeah management should've organized this better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil's Haircut Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Little old lady dies in Macy's stampede !!!! Lifesize Barney gets trampled at FAO Schwartz !!! Entire crowd get electrocuted by tripping over exposed powerline while clamouring over each other to get into JR Electronics in lower Manhattan !!!!!!! These are the headlines I'd like to see. Wal-Mart though? Yeah, a bunch of third world savages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is sick ! Dzldoc is right about management being better prepared. I'm sure some poor stock room boy of a manager made the call to open the doors regardless of the crowd that was waiting to pounce. Too, damn scared to make the right call and this poor gentleman has paid the ultimate price because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
