I and a friend also a big comic book fan our on our way to our local comic book store "Geckos" Upoun arriving we see a huge conglamoration of kids/adults/child molestors gathered in the store we unable to even enter the ridiculously crowded store can only stare in bedazzled amazement as they all begin to take out cards
and within a minute everyone is playing each other at some card game
my friend and i sit outside wondering when can comic purchasing commence
while sitting there a 40ish year old man leaves the store to go to 7-eleven
my friend asks the gentleman what is occuring in the store.
the man turned his whole body stared at us both.
broke into a wide smile and said one word that will haunt me for life
"Magic" and then he walked away
they had closed the store to have a magic gathering
I emphasize gathering
the store doesnt even sell magic cards
please explain?
what is this?
needless to say i will never shop at that store again
