I don't have any interesting experiences myself, but when I was in elementary school one of my classmates got banned from the local Blockbuster because he was trying to impress his friends by attempting a backflip while his parents were waiting in line or something and ended up wrecking their Pokémon Snap booth.

I kinda miss the experience of going to Blockbuster with no particular movie in mind, browsing around, and renting poo poo like The Mission or whatever just because it looked interesting.

One of the reasons I miss movie rental stores a lot is because there really was an incentive to watch the movies that caught my eye as soon as possible, instead of now where I just pile them into my Netflix/Amazon queue do something else only to forget about them until long after they've been taken off the service.

Going to Gamestop over the last few years has been interesting, the game sections keep getting smaller and smaller while the sections for tacky "gamer/geek" merchandise get larger and larger. I think half of each Gamestop at this point is Star Wars mugs and funko pop figures.

In the last place I lived there was a GameStop across the street I frequented and I was the only person there to ever purchase a Vita game and there was a weirdo girl on staff who recognized me for it and kept trying to loudly sell me on softcore porno Vita visual novels whenever I stopped in so I moved out of state and changed my name.

Lmao
