So these fools were fighting and almost having a riot over some damn shoes... In Orlando....because they are "limited edition" Retail for $200-ish...and ALL these Hip-hop peeps are
claiming they can get the and re-sale them for upwards of $3000......WTF? 
STORY HERE The Orlando Sentinel reported that the wild scene in Orlando erupted about 9:45 p.m. Thursday as hundreds of people packed the mall's parking lot, hoping to buy the new shoe at midnight. As the crowd grew, a large contingent of Orange County deputy sheriffs arrived, braced for problems. Similar shoe releases have caused violence at shoe stores across the country, but no one was hurt or arrested at Florida Mall, the Sheriff's Office said. Witnesses told the newspaper that the crowd was asked to wait across the street when the mall closed at 9 p.m., but one person made a mad dash toward the Foot Locker where the shoes were to go on sale, and hundreds followed. |
