3000 is just counting the people they found.
Imagine you're shopping and you pull out a towel from the rack and there is just a whole stoner back behind there chilling. /shudders
Hey, I found a stoner tucked away in the men's jeans in Wal-Mart, 50% off.
Decided to take him home, and it's been a great decision! He takes care of the couch, he's always down to play some Smash, he'll even let me win.
All it cost me was watching one Pauly Shore movie a week. Tomorrow's Encino Man!
I've played hide and seek every single time I have been in an IKEA. We never got more than 20 people together though.
They probably fucked up the place in process
3000 people sounds a bit excessive.
Why? Why would there be an upper limit?
To how many people can reasonably fit inside Ikea without being disruptive?
I've noticed a lot of media outlets like to add a zero here and there when reporting.
A mix of 300 people could fill the IKEA parking lot. 3000 is an entire cruise ship.You piqued my interest so I went to look it up. Average Ikea is 300k sf. So obviously omitting the fact that there are areas of the store that are off limits (although are you following those rules when you're playing hide and seek?), as well as there being furniture everywhere, that's 100 square feet per person, which I think is doable. Especially considering, if I'm playing hide and seek at IKEA, I'm hiding in the furniture.
Sounds like they weren't hiding well enough.
Why aren't there paid services for hide and seek? Like a bunch if furniture, walls, shelves and what not and put it in a big warehouse. Have people pay to participate and play whatever games they want in there. You can have massive organized events and everything. Imagine massive game of manhunt in there with electronic devices to show who's it.
September 2019
Ah, the before-times
Now the question is were there any people in labcoats among the cops
All you need now is to lock the doors, turn off the lights, and tell everyone that the story is closing.
Seems like the police did the seeking, lol
I mean it would be pretty bad for the staff and the customers who just want to buy shit
Might be decent exposure for the store though. It's pretty easy to see stuff at IKEA and be like yeah, I have been meaning to pick up a new wobbly stool. Better grab some weird candy too.
"Cops"
MTFs understand that it's part of the job. But they still hate being called cops.
COP = Criminals On Patrol
