A True Miracle (no, not a religious lecture)

UniTyler · 2005-11-27, 04:30 AM

Check this out...I went to Best Buy (comp/tech/movie/music store) and was looking at DVDs. Well I had been wanting a DVD of the Superbowl XXXIX (the most recent one), but because they were $30 I decided I couldn't afford one without dropping about my allowance for two weeks. Here's the good part...I took a final look at a random copy of the DVD and when I checked the price tag to make sure a miracle hadn't happened, I noticed on that particular copy out of 20 or 30 others, the price was mismarked to $6.99!!! I took it to the counter and the techie-chick confirmed it - it was a mismark and I could have it for that price. True proof of God in my book.

You got any pics of this techie chick? If that's true proof of god, then I can only imagine.

Two total plus ones I checked after I got the miracle copy. First I picked one out to buy which was $30. Then later after I was done shopping I looked at one once more for no reason, and that was the random $7 one. Because I wanted to know if this was a miracle, I checked all the other copies AFTER I got the miracle copy and none were mismarked except mine.

It wasn't mis-marked, it's a defect. Watch out for the surprise ending.

For non-fans of Roman Numerals, at least the next one is much shorter at XL, does that mean eXtra Large?

Seriously? What is the surprise?

Remember the end where on third down, McNabb threw a pass that went just over the outstretched fingertips of recevier Freddie Mitchell and into the arms of Harrison for an interception with 9 seconds left, sealing a victory for the Patriots?

Just don't be surprised on your copy if that pass was complete and the Eagles win instead.

I just specifically watched the end of both the main feature and the world broadcast, and there was nothing special.
