SO....I woke up at 4:30 AM when my mom called my cell phone. Apparently, my mom was already awake before me. A few preparations, and I was ready.
My mom headed out, and passed by the Mohawk Commons Target. There were already 45 people in line, with only 39 units in the store. My mom passes this information to me, and I quickly jump online to find another place. Just to check, I told her to go to Walmart in Altamont. She got there with many cars in the lot, but no one standing in line....STRANGE...
So she came here to pick me up at 5:20 AM, and we head out to my second choice, the Target in Latham. We arrived there at 5:30 AM, and I jump out to estimate that I would probably be in the high 20s in line. There's only 33 units in this store. No one in the back knew what number they were in line. I told my mom that it's good, and went to the back of the line.
Two girls were sitting there. One was 12, and her sister was about 7 years old. I joined them. I tried to do my homework, but I didn't really FEEL like doing it. So I went and took out my DS Lite. The girls saw me, and wanted to join me. We played for 1 1/2 hours on New Super Mario Bros. Minigames, until the guard came out at 7 AM handing out tickets.
The guard reached us and gave ticket number 32 to the girls. Then I snatched the LAST ticket, ticket number 33!!!! I was laughing maniacally in my head. The group of people behind me, about 5 of them, were probably really disappointed. I didn't dare turn around.
So we hung around for a while, as other people left, Target handed out popcorn and soda to everyone who were still there. We went in the girls' car, and birds started to fly around the parking lot. We decided to throw popcorn out, and they gather to eat it. Another car threw out a whole bag, in fact two bags, but the birds weren't interested. The other people were probably mad at us.
Finally, we walked out at 7:55 and stood in the front of the doors, waiting for it to open. When they did, we rushed in and tried to race to the Electronics section, but we got lost.
We found the Electronics section and ended up being last in line. LAST ticket, LAST console in the store.
So my mom arrived and I was already halfway through the line. When I was up next, the attendant took my ticket. Then we went to the cashier and paid for the Wii.
We drove back home, and I was very excited. After unboxing, I finally turn it on.
Wii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
