I had taken a couple of pictures and thought I was posting, but things got complicated and messed up. Everything was a disaster. When I got there, we were between 50-60 in line and there were 73 systems. Best Buy though is probably now the worst company ever and wouldn't give out vouchers until 8:40am, which was over 7 hours after I got there. By then, everything was so disorganized, and people were cutting in line. We caught one girl who slept in her truck until 7:30am, who snuck in line, WHO GOT A VOUCHER! Best Buy guy couldn't do anything because he got there at 8:00am and didn't know who cut and who didn't. Everyone was so angry that a riot almost broke out. It got so cold that I couldn't use my phone anymore, and most of the time I was curled up trying to keep warm on the ground. During the last 4 hours, it rained terribly, after slowly raining earlier. Best Buy was supposed to open at 8am, as told to me by about 6 workers I called yesterday, and workers that were there early this morning. Turns out the manager decided to open at 9am. Then there were people who got an Xbox 360 at Target across the street who drove by at like 8:10am waving their 360's in the window of their car. Then the canopy I was using at one point started to blow across the pavement, blew into someone's new truck, then went air born. I was luckily able to jump up and grab it in mid air right before it hit someone else's truck. Best Buy still wouldn't do anything for everyone when it was raining and extremely cold, especially because of the wind chill. Target gave out vouchers at 6am so they could come back at 8am to buy it. So all in all looking for a 360, I tried 2 store standouts, stayed up for almost 40 hours, didn't eat for 13 hours, missed a day of school, almost got sick from standing in the rain for 8 hours, missed my chance at Walmart (but was expected with only arriving at like 5:15am), and missed my chance at Best Buy because of tons of line cutters and so much confusion and disorganization. And I'm not even some adult that may be able to withstand all that waiting and no eating/sleeping as well, I'm 17 years old. And they wouldn't even put us on some sort of list for a next shipment, we have just as much chance as anyone else even though we already stood there for 9 hours. All we got were some coupons and a DVD of game trailers that was made by Best Buy. Thank you Best Buy for ruining my day and letting greedy ungrateful people get a system unjustfully before me.
