"A group of fans (and scalpers, probably) were lined up in front of the Best Buy location yesterday, April 29 when, to their surprise, local law enforcement drove up to respond to a tip that a man was hiding inside the closed store, seemingly waiting for the cards to go on sale when the store opened in the morning."
"It doesn't sound like anyone was hurt, but the man was arrested and thus unable to swoop in and buy the cards. We clown on these grown-ass men for ruining the hobby for everyone else, but if I didn't think this man had every intention of causing trouble for customers when the store finally opened I'd have to admire the commitment."
A man was found hiding inside a closed Best Buy in Pasadena, waiting for a new card drop. Local law enforcement responded to a tip about his presence. The incident occurred on April 29, and while no one was hurt, the man was arrested before he could purchase the cards. This situation reflects the toxic environment created by scalpers in the hobby, although the man's dedication to his plan was noted humorously despite the negative impact on the community.
