I actually saw a woman trying to enter the stadium with a doll wrapped in a blanket so she could get the Beanie Baby for her "kid."

If you could resist throwing the friggin things on the ice during the game, then the stampede wouldn't happen. We could get the giveaways before the game.<BR/><BR/>Kind of reminds me of Costco. Try to get a bag of chicken nuggets during the weekend. You have to fight through the crowd of people waiting for the free samples of cream puffs and strangely inedible ravioli. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and nice job by the officiating at this game. Swallow the whistle for the entire game, until it is actually on the line.

It seems the more value the giveaway has, the more people become blatantly obsessed with getting the most. It's sick, it's part of human nature (like you said) and it also makes me embarrassed to breathe the same air as those folks.<BR/><BR/>Great post!<BR/><BR/>Michael Schuerlein<BR/>www.islesblogger.comislesbloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049102589498743267noreply@blogger.com
