Black Friday


Rossford: “I did it…” exclaimed George Szoevich as he left the Best Buy with his $299 laptop in hand. George was one of the 12 lucky ones that was able to withstand the cold and get one of these Black Friday deals. It came at price for George that can not be measured.

“I missed Thanksgiving dinner with the family and called in sick to "work" (George is a parking lot attendant for the Ted's Hamburger Lot) on Friday just to get it. My family claims they aren't going to talk to me until Christmas but thats fine because I have $299 of porn to look up till then"


When asked how this year compared to last year George said:

"They put out a nice port-a-potty out here and that was a blessing. Last year all I had was a coffee can and a copy of the Blade which as you know is about as thin as single ply and actually it’s a better read after you use it.”

While George considers this a moral victory in his hunt for the best deal possible, fellow linemates disagree.

“That man was annoying as hell, he kept telling us stories about how he was the first one on the east side to get the Air Jordans IV back in 1989, and then he told us how he was the third person to get Tickle Me Elmo a few years ago. I asked how old his kids were and he said he didn’t have any kids which pretty much creeped me out” Said Stephanie Bexley

George spent approximately 38 hours outside in the cold in front of Best Buy which is impressive until you consider that the line did not start forming until 6 hours before the store opened.
