Default A funny story for ya

My friends and I are at the Radio City Music Hall, waiting to get into the christmas spectacular. One of my friends is late, and the rest of us get fed up waiting and we get in the really long line.

We're making decent progress (and the line is growing behind us), and my friend shows up. So we kind of slide out of the line (but not quite) to wait for him, and we're casually trying to get him to cut in line with the rest of us. It's all a bit awkward.

I see two security guards giving us the eye, and finally they walk up to us and ......

Guard #1: 'Excuse me.......'
Me: 'uhhhhh, yes?'
Guard: What phone is that??!? That's great!!

He's going off about how one of his coworkers has huge hands and how he'd love the Note. Meanwhile behind them, my friend gets in line. Bwa ha ha!



Side note - I was eating dinner tonight in a restaurant and 6 people (including the restaurant manager) wandered up to our table asking me questions about the note - What it was, where I got it, and how much it was. It was a little crazy actually.

Same here. I've had quite a few people ask about the phone. Every single one of those inquiries were also supplemented by some form of "Awesome" until i told them that it's not available in US yet

Haha yeah I can relate. I was at Best Buy Mobile yesterday and the second I brought out my phone the representative was all like O___O and asked what kind of phone it was. He even laid it flat on his hand and went, "damn it's as big as my hand." Then four other people surrounded me and commented about how it was like a mini tablet and how nice it looked; one even compared it to the Dell Streak. This phone is definitely a head turner lol.

Yea i have had the same thing happen but some times I think people are just plain nuts.. as several of them ask where did I get the phone and I said Poland and they look at me then asked "how was the weather there" Some of these people even know me and know I have not left town

Must be Black friday issues in the mind...
