Here's a look at my pair

 

[dro3000]

I got fingers crossed. Only one spot in Canada got these and they said they only got a few pairs more than a FSR (thats like the state of California getting a FSR, SMH). Got a buddy in line for me (4th in line right now) cuz its still a 13hr drive for me. Retail is $200 a pair BTW plus 12% tax SMDH, up north we resell at the retail spot LOL, but hey, sure beats paying $350++++

LOL. Only 1 store out of the whole Mississippi Gulf Coast/Mobile, AL area got them, and it was a Hibbett Sports store. They got 24 pairs in. I am cool with the manager, and she held me a sz 12 and 13 for me and my brother. When I got there, there was not a single person in line. Called a bunch of friends/family/connects that wanted them, and picked them up for everybody. And ended up getting 3 sz 12s for myself and 3 for my brother

Why would you need 3 of the same shoe? These aren't even all that.. Guess it's a new age mentality

Way to kill it! Sometimes living in a region that gets very little love (especially on an LE) is a huge pain, but sometimes it also works out in your favor. Not a chance I could have got a second pair today, let alone 6! Congrats.

Wow, so I haven't done a LE release in awhile. I showed up at the Champs in Merrillville, IN at about 6:40 A.M. There were about a dozen people there, mostly teenagers from about 14-17. I'm 26, so needless to say I felt kinda old. On top of that... and I'm hesitant to even bring this up, but I was the only white person in line. But wait, there was no line! I asked who was first, where the line was, and I got laughed at. "There's no line, when the doors open up you're going to run yo !+$ to the gate and that becomes the line." Are you effing kidding me? So 8 AM rolls around, and this fat security guard walks up and pushes 2 of the 4 doors open. About 30 people storm in. Luckily I was by one of the doors that he opened, at which point I got to test out my sprinting skills against teenagers. Needless to say, their fast twitch muscles put my out of shape !+$ to shame, but somehow I still end up about 4th to 5th on one side of the gate. Guess I'm not in that bad of shape, and definitely glad I'm not a fat !+$.

I don't know what my actual position was, because all these kids pushed up against the gate from left to right. The guy in front of me was a little older too, and started laughing at the kids, telling them you always line up on the left. At this point most of them abandon the left side and form a single file line against the right side. At about 8:25 3 staff members push their way through, open the gate and go inside. One girl comes back and tells everyone they need to line up to the left. YESSSSSSSS!

I'm now 5th in line with little kids in front of me who are looking for sizes 8-10, and they come back with cards to ask for sizes. I was good to go with my 11.5, but there was a man and woman who were arguing over who was there first, fighting over the last size 12. Pretty much after the front of the line got their cards, everyone else started pushing and swarming the Champs employee.

It turned out alright, but I wasn't too happy about the chaos involved. Everyone was trying to sneak around, move positions once inside, and everyone's refusal to form a line outside the door had me SMH. I may post some pics, but everyone's got a pretty good look at them right now. My left shoe has a bit of a glue stain on the sole, so I wouldn't be surprised if Champs got the leftovers (as the boxes all were denoted in marker - 1-490 5/7). One of the guys told me they weren't even supposed to get any until they got a call on Thursday.

Bottom line: I'm getting too old to deal with these little punks, especially when they look at me like I'm a honkey moron who isn't even worth talking to, let alone deserving of a pair.

Thats crazy man, kudos to you for stickin it out tho, I prolly woulda got pissed and smashed some yung'n for talkin wreckless.  Congrats on your pick up!!!

@ PTone:  Hey thanks for trying my dude, its good to see some NT'ers you like to help, although I struck out it looks like Im still gonna be able to cop, so all is well.......THX again and Ill hit you up in the future.......
