His name was Glen. The best retail manager of all time.

I used to destroy that Taco Bell, and it was always packed.

I had no idea Tookie ever worked there.

I spent way too much money as a kid at the motorola kiosk in the middle. I always had to have the latest pager.

I was a teenager at the time and knew all of the baseball players, so I would talk to him when we went in there. Super nice guy. Don't know what the story was, just know that it was odd.

Was she the crazy red head? And yes, I realize that is redundant.

I managed the Babbage's until 1990.

I used to back flip across the field w/ Armando Rios when they let the kids go on the field for the National Anthem. Llodyd Peever called me before he went to the Rockies because after he got hit by the ball, he spent the rest of the season gunning behind home plate and I spent alot of time talking to him. When he called to say he was leaving I was like 13 or 14 and I was like "Mom, I can't talk to him on the phone!" I was so nervous, but it was a really nice gesture. I have alot of fond memories of the old Alex Box.

Record Bar


The manager chick (Maureen?) Knew when all the new thrash albums would hit the store.

I lifted a Metallica VHS back in the day...only time I ever shoplifted in my life.

The old pizza place

I forget the name


I think the pizza place was called Mama Brava's or something close to that. They had huge arse slices of pizza I loved that place.

All I remember is they had bad arse root beer floats. Now Cortana Mall is flooded with hood rats doing whatever hood rats do.
