I can't believe people were camping out at NTNY since last night when they could've just came to the FA midnight release at like 5 or 6 PM and could've got their pair with no problem.

That definitely beats camping in the the brick *** cold for 15+ hours.

Now that's what irks me.

it's 11:30 pst. i called shiekh carlsbad san diego. they just sold out 30 mins ago. I should of went there instead of fashion what a big mistake.
 
Went to Eastridge mall at midnight with a friend of mine and got kicked off the property time after time by some security guards. Two more friends of my show up at we wait outside of the parking lot. We finally get to park in the place at 7 and realized we were waiting on the wrong side. We jet to the other side and see people ahead of us. End up finding that only 9 F***ing pairs are being sold. End of getting nothing for a whole night of camping..........
 
I'm in Philly..I got mine at Sneaker Villa on 52nd st. This morning at about 10am... :wink:

it totally sucked. my friend first went to meadows footaction and was waiting outside for them to open and some dudes snuck in the side door. Meanwhile i went to shiekhs at boulevard and get there to find 10 people waiting. the manager comes in to open the store and announces that they started selling em thursday and 7.5-8.5 was all that was left. now everybody is pissed. so now my friend is at niketown at about 8:30. its totally packed he doesnt get me or him a pair. so then i go to suite 160. get there at about 10 after nine. they open at 10. worker goes into the store to set everything up and everyone starts clammoring up by the. everybody was much bigger than me( im 13)but i still manage to get 6 or 7th in line. they were supposedly letting small groups in at a time. BS. they open the door everybody dogpiles in and starts fighting at the counter. my friend just gets here and im trying to get him his size but im unsuccessful. After about half an hour of yelling and cursing and fighting metro police show up. my friend is able to me my size 9 but he can't get his 13. cops escort me out and now im trying to find my friend a 13 for a reasonable price. total BS. I KNOW THERE ARE NOT THAT MANY SNEAKERHEADS IN VEGAS.CRAZY!!!

K. Heres a story for you guys... I arrived at Solano Mall in the bay area with my friends at 9pm. We were the first people to form a line..but then the security gave us a whole bunch of crap and ended up kicking us outta the premises. Of course we werent going to listen...we talked to about 5 guards and they kept giving us diff. times to line up. After circling around the mall, hanging out at AMPM, and watching the cops make everyone who attempted to lineup get kicked out....5:15am hit...so were first in line with some fellow NT'ers with met up with and all of a sudden HELLA people come outta nowhere. So they told us that we had to be there at 6am not a minute less, but at this point no one is going to leave. After begging us to leave the security guard just gives up and decides to let us do what we want. So 7am hit and they open the doors.....EVERYONE rushes into a single doorway....we get to Footaction and we're within the first 10 people in line...BUT....a bunch of ghetto *** people just come and crowd everyone and start cutting people....the manager comes and tells us to get into a single file line, but all the cutters dont want to move and so the manager decides to not sell the shoes because he said he didnt know who came first........seeing that those DISHONEST people wouldnt move, we told him to check out the surveilance video and see who was really telling the truth...after begging the manager and cops they said they didnt want to do that for "just a pair of shoes"....that was soooo shady after waiting for 12 hours + .....(the manager at Footaction is an idiot) so because of those idiots the cops kick everyone out the mall and noone got the shoes.....so were chilling outside and all of a sudden this black guy comes out with a pair...saying they sold it to him and mocking us...we run into the mall, and by that time they sold all 24 pairs to the CUTTERS....we were so damn heated....so we run to Shieks..cause the people there got kicked out and we decided to make a new line and not give up...after waiting for an hour we get to finally, after 13 hours, get our Altitudes...BUT....all those greedy *** people that cut us came to Shieks threatening us that if we bought theyre size they would make sure we didnt leave the mall alive and all this other BS....Shieks had 10 pairs and we got ours....but its so upsetting to see how Dishonest and Shady some folks are ...i mean how you gonna threaten someones life just because theyre getting a pair in your size?? thats just wrong and sad how this world works

Wow... I just got back from coppin' the new J's that dropped today. If ya'll didnt get a pair, 'so soddy cliff' LOL. Heres my story though..it was funny..

So I get back from watchin THE DIARY OF A MAD BLACK WOMEN with the parents and VIc around 11:45 pm on the 25th. The movie was aiiiiiiite. I guess I'd recommend it. Anyways... I play some Halo with Vic to kill time...now its like 3am....spend the rest online lookin at niketalk and readin up on all the hype that surrounds this shoe release. I couldnt believe people were goin this crazy over some shoes. ANYWAYS...

I bounce at like 3:45AM, fill up the tank with gas...then downtown. On the way there... tell me why the police were escorting the longest ...and im talkin about the longest big rig *BIG LOAD* truck ever. This truck was so long, it had someone ON TOP OF IT at the end...steering the end of the truck. You know like on fire trucks...YEAH!! I was like wtf..Dude was like walking around on top of it too while the truck was moving. At first I thought he was reinacting a scene from Matrix 2 lol. Anyways, I get off the freeway and speed past these lames...i was all trippin..like DAMN IM GONNA BE LAST IN LINE TO GET MY J'S AT 5am lol...

So I get there around 5am. No one is there! I pull up right alongside the place and snap a few pics of the place ...

At this time I'm tired as fukk and I figured I'd do my hw at this time but...nooooope i was so fukkin tired I just fell asleep. I wake up at like 7am and theres like 4 dudes outside the shop ...I"m like aiiiite ill get out and talk to these foos.

So I'm conversating..and its cool talking sneakers with other shoe fans...especially in a group setting..i dunno...it was tight (no homo)...anyways..more and more people start coming...and im glad I was there first...there was this one half black half asian dude there talkin all this @#%$...like he was from the hood n @#%$ and how he'd jack jordans from peeps if they had his size..WHEN HE WAS ALREADY THE 2nd PERSON IN LINE lol ... but he was coo though.

Time passes...and mad heads start showin up. People sharing stories about how they just came from so andso...etc. THEN...the crackheads started poppin out of their hibernation n @#%$. It was so funny..but sad. There are alot of bums in downtown san diego....

This one particular lady I caught on tape...was DANCING ON THE SIDEWALK LIKE SHE WAS ALL BY HERSELF IN THE WORLD...LIKE A MANIAC. @#%$ was so funny...dudes were laughin and clownin this chick...

So she walks on into this store..comes out with her crack head friend..and is like SO WHO HAD THE CAMERA..and everyone knew i had it but didnt say anything... I thought she was gonna try to take it or somethin. I shoulda knew better to film a crackhead..but luckily she was to cracked out to remember my face lol. Some black dude was like it was HIM and pointed to his friend LOL...so the lady started walkin to the dude..and him and his friends ran! lol it was so funny... and she was like..i just want to give you some glasses i bought. LOL...and ...he was all hisitant to take the glasses..like it had some crack residue still left on the eye lenses or somethin lol then shes like "i just want to take a picture with you, brother!" lol i was rollin... heres the clip..just press play




So after that...doors finally open at 9:45am... Im first in line..copped my pair...walked out..dudes were askin me million questions. i guess they had only 26 pair...one dude asked me if id sell them for 300. thats ridiculous...but i could probably get more than that on ebay easily...but thats my story...hoped you liked it..and heres the shoes...

DO NOT WORRY I WILL GET MY MAIN MAN BRANDON TO BUY INTO THE HYPE I HAVE A PAIR SITTING AT MY STORE WITH HIS NAME ON IT.

It's funny cuz I can't stand these shoes. Personally I think that they're the ugliest XIII released. I don't even have a pair for me. I was just pickin up for my people. lol

HE WILL BUY INTO THE HYPE. To all those who got there pairs and did not have to deal with a headache congrats




 
Cerritos FA was a complete mess, kinda sounded like that story above, the cutting wasnt that bad but they cut cause there was no form or fashion to this at all. and they got 72 pairs and the employees kept 14! this release sucked and there were at least 100 very upset people with no shoes. and its funny the brain surgeon that works for foot action is like well what could we do? its like you could first start off by letting security know when there is a going to be a release of this size and expecting that many people, I mean cmon they knew it was going to be a zoo, and to the fat white security lad y that thought she was boss haas, go feed your cats.

crazy, crazy day...LVjordan238....glad I was able to help you get your Jordan. I didn't get my size 13 but I got a size 8.5 & 14 for trading or selling. In all of this I met a cool guy from SUITE 160. Good looking out NTer STE160 for the free shirt. So if you guys ever in Vegas check out SUITE 160. STE160 is a really classy guy and sorry about the misunderstanding I had about SUITE 160......everyone check out SUITE 160 when you come to Vegas.
