6 Things you’ll see at Black Friday

Black Friday is the biggest shopping day of the year. With large crowds of people all looking to save a buck, it can be dangerous. If you’re looking to join the party, be prepared for hell. We’ll give you a preview of things we’ve seen in the past during Black Friday’s across the country.

Insanely Long Lines

It’s known that Black Friday lines are completely nuts, with several hundreds or even thousands of crazy shoppers, be prepared to wait in lines for hours. People get there as early as midnight, with the veterans camping out overnight. Avoid these lines by finding Black Friday shopping deals online.

Running of the Bulls

When the doors open on Black Friday, it feels like you’re in Spain during the famous running of the bulls. Even fat people are running like they’re Michael Johnson; it’s comedy.

Flying Products

Last time I was at Black Friday, the Best Buy employees were literally throwing MP3 players into crowds of people. People were screaming and jumping like it was a damn KISS concert. Bring some athletic gear, as you’ll get a good workout on your first Black Friday experience.

Bribery

Most stores have a limited stock of their early bird specials; this includes goodies like $199 laptops, $399 LCD’s, and so on. There’s always that guy who is trying to get a new LCD HDTV, but is too lazy to wait in the Black Friday lines at 4am. In result, he may bride one of the store workers, or maybe even offer money to somebody who’s already purchased one of the items.

Fights!

Two parents are trying to buy a XBOX for their kid, but they’re shit out of luck, there’s only 1 left. What do they do? Fight.

The Grim Reaper

With an extremely large amount of people rushing to get Black Friday deals, somebody was destined to be trampled by these fearless crowds, and this happened last year at a Walmart in Long Island. A lady working at Walmart was trampled to death by a stampede of people trying to get in the doors on Black Friday. Four more people were injured, including a pregnant woman.

If you don’t get trampled, you may get shot, like the 2 people did outside of Toys ‘R’ Us last year. Either way…Black Friday is hell!
