I walk into this "new to me" Walmart, and just like every other Walmart I've been to, the toy section is in the complete opposite end of the building as the entrance, but that's another story. So I'm making my way towards the wing of this giant store that has toys and just as I hit mile marker two, I see pallets with boxes,.. lots of boxes,.. so I kick it into high gear. Then I get there and it's all juice and lotions and TP and what not. "Fuck! What a waste!" But wait,.. "what's that noise.. it sounds like wheels rolling across the floor... is that another pile of boxes? Hmm.. probably more TP. These people need a lot of TP.. and diapers, but let me go check anyway." So I walk towards the noise and as I turn the corner I see those toy looking boxes on the pallet that's being brought out. "OMG!" I panic.. I power walk over to the pallet as the guy is wheeling... they are toys... and "is that????? Avengers.. STUDIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Of course this box is in the middle, towards the bottom, of a giant stack of boxes. So I wait for the dude to drop it and leave. "How do I get this case out without making a scene? Shit! A fat dude is approaching... he's looking right at the pallet! Oh no!" I reach in and just Jenga that shit right out of the pile.. fat boy is now here, but I'm holding the case. Ready for this... I turn the opposite way as him and dart off. I go flying down an aisle looking for a safe place to open this case... he comes after me... "WTF!" He's literally power-walking parrallel to me an aisle down... so it's that peek a boo walk thing where someone is going the same pace as you.. only this is intentional,.. and intense. So I stop, cut like Sweetness, and tucked that case under my arm and fucking ran to cosmetics (just where I ended up--weird). "Ok, here's the spot! No one is around.. I lost that dude... finally, Hulk will be mine!" I bust out my shed key, slice that case, rip out the three gems,.. look left and there's the dude... "Uh oh.. he found me!" But it's too late... I have my three figures and I'm out.. I run to checkout, scan scan scan swipe.. boom.. I'm out. I just raided that Walmart like a boss.
If you're reading this, man who lost to me this evening,.. you lost to a better man tonight.
I'm still chuckling over this story an hour and a half later.
