  • Toys R Us is closing down

  • I'm not happy about it cuz I got like a lot of great childhood memories in that place

  • I like hanging out Toys R Us because all my favourite things were there you could buy

  • candy, video games, toys, crack. Calm down PC police. I'm just kidding.

  • I never really bought candy from Toys R Us

  • It was always hard you could feel it through the wrapper. One day

  • One day I walk into Toys R Us in the corner of my eye

  • I see this video game system and a sign that says Dreamcast coming soon

  • They got Sonic Adventures on it. I start playing I'm like mhh and then I get to the part where

  • Sonic hits this boost and you see this whale come crashing up in the boardwalk goes flying and

  • Everything is crazy on the screen. I had never seen anything like this in a video game in my life

  • I was SHOOKETH I like slowly put down the controller walked over to the register real slow

  • And I was like brah how much to reserve the Dreamcast

  • "Ten dollars to reserve the system five dollars to reserve a game," and I was like man here you go!

  • The guy takes my money, prints up a receipt and gives it to me

  • I go home. Dreamcast release day comes I only have but $300 to my name

  • I take 280 dollars of that and head over to Toys R Us

  • I walk in go straight to the register, and there's this old lady there, and I mean this lady

  • was OLD. Bless her little heart, but she had no business

  • Handling money. They probably just felt bad for her and they just like stuck her on the register thinking. What's the worst that could happen?

  • Huh me, and I wasn't even thinking

  • Anything you know felonious. Yeah, I'm here to pick up the Dreamcast and she takes the receipt and she's like

  • Haaeeehhhhhh ahhhhhh I ? Uhhhhhh I ahhhhh haaaeeh Uhhhhhhhh?

  • "What are you here to pick up young man?"

  • The dreamcast over there

  • Recap I've only put down $10 for the system and

  • $5 for the game, so I owe them $189 dollars more for the system and

  • $39 more for the game. This lady is LOST

  • *X-Files Theme (Illuminati Song)*

  • I start thinking like should I walk her through this or

  • Should I just not do anything. I go with the second option I decide I'm just gonna let this happen

  • "Susan could you come take a look at this

  • Susan come here." Susan comes over and I see Susan I'm like dang it I was so close

  • There's a split second where both of them were looking at the receipt like

  • *X-Files Theme (Illuminati Song)*

  • But then Susan goes "Oh!

  • This is that new dream thingy. Uh yeah you're supposed

  • to stamp it and then send them over to the videogame counter." And I'm over here like yes

  • Listen to Susan and that's exactly what she does that lemme re-enact it. That's what she does so

  • So I slowly reach forward and grab the receipt

  • I know I'm supposed to pay full price here before getting it stamped and then walking over to the videogame register, but

  • I'm just hey

  • So I walk over to the videogame cashier like

  • And I don't say anything I kind of just slide him my receipt

  • "Hmm..Dreamcast okay, I'll be right back"

  • I'm sitting there with my hands folded like the perfect gentleman that I am my cousin is next to me

  • Bolivias as to what's going on.

  • *X-Files Theme (Illuminati Song)*

  • So now as I'm waiting. I'm thinking myself

  • Am I about to spend 10 dollars for video game system?

  • Cuz if that dude comes back around that corner and as soon as I started thinking that he comes back around that corner

  • Here you go. I take the box out of his hands verry slowly and I'm like I

  • I.....Pre-ordered a game too, and he looks at the receipt. Oh Sonic okay my B, bro

  • I'll be right back so he runs around the corner comes back put sonic on top of the Dreamcast and he goes

  • You want a bag and I'm like

  • I got outside and it was a rap. I tell you I try to be an honest and genuine person nowadays, but younger me

  • I'm trying to tell you he was a thug you want to know something else funny.

  • I had all that money left over that I didn't spend on the system. I went right back to Toys R Us

  • The next day and bought like a bunch of games

  • Thug life, so I was that was so dumb of me. I could have gone to a dozen different stores

  • I'm trying to imagine how many people got free systems?

  • They probably closed down because of old ladies of the register giving away all the merch jokes aside Toys R Us

  • really sad to see you guys go I

  • Bought my first crack pipe there

Toys R Us is closing down
