So today I noticed that there was an extremely long line, almost across the entire malls at Build-A-Bear so I look it up and they are doing a "pay your age" promotion. Well I start to hear people getting upset because they are being told that the line is being abandoned. I look it up and looks like they couldn't handle the amount of demand from everyone. Here is a video on twitter showing the line https://twitter.com/JRW_Fitness/status/1017397349516275712 https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-44809213 quote:Build-A-Bear 'pay your age' offer abandoned amid 'chaos' e: looks like they shut down every store lmao Over There fucked around with this message at 18:08 on Jul 12, 2018 |

That's not really very chaotic OP. A pretty nice orderly line. Or for you folks across the pond, "queue".

My wife and kids went to a store at a mall in Nashville and they were telling people the wait would be around 8 hours. The line took up the entire top half of a good sized mall.

I hope there was a 69 year old who didn't mind paying a little extra for the bear.

Why would you build a bear? Didn't any of you learn that Frankensteins are bad news?

The bear has been built wrong. Chaos engulfs the land as countrymen turn on one another.

The truly depressing thing is how many people there are building the bears for themselves. How many gross, middle-aged people offered to babysit their nephews, only to drag them to this Hell on Earth in the hopes of scoring a 5 dollar bear?

People love to get a good deal and will kill to ensure it. K-marts used to have an in-house morgue to deal with the blue light special slayings

It's basically this video but with a bunch of middle age adults trying to get a deal with their screaming children. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pyW6w5B7Aw I walked a blind lady to her car and someone pushed by her and rudely said “I’m trying to get over there!”
