Happy camper pops up at an Apple store, waits for fame and glory
Share:
Now, we are not against any form of gadget appreciation here at PhoneArena, but what's your take on the attention seeker? An extreme case of the otherwise mild OCD called Apple fanboyism? Apple viral marketing? Get-a-life?

I'm willing to bet anything that they are paying this moron to do this. Trying to over hype this over hyped phone.

Why would they need to pay him? The iPhone 4 presale sold out without any gimmick at all...

I already know what comments are going to be coming about how this guy is a loser...or how he has no life. What happened to us nerds being excited about technology instead of taking some side like you're a Twilight fan? Seems like you guys fight back and forth more than congress. Either hate for Apple or hate for Google. They are just phones. People wait outside for concert tickets, movies, and video games. Keep the enthusiasm there...because once the enthusiasm is gone...well...there is no point of sites like this anymore.

He is obviously a loser with no life. That said, you can't compare this to concert tickets, they really aren't sold like that anymore, and the lines formed the night before, not the week before. Movies, and videogames, again, the night before. Anyone camping for more than that night is a loser without a life.

You, my friend, are jaded. It seems like more and more ppl are jaded these days. I wish i were this guy, get to chill for a week or so, plus be the first one out the gate w/ a sweet lil device, no care in the world, just being him.

people always camp out for apple products u cant say u've ever been really excited about something b4...apple users take the obsession to a whole new level. mac addicts love their devices almost like its their child. i remember how excited i was when i got my mac laptop...it's an amazing feeling. their products change ur life for ever! "it's magical" (lol)...

Dude prob has a cooler filled to the brim w/ Sam Adams, a bag of Cape Cods, and a Gameboy. That would keep me for a week..

I do not know what's the fuss of waiting in line so long as they were saying it's okay for a concert , but to buy a phone I see no sense on doing in it, this guy has job is what I wonder? I agree someone has to be paid him for doing this

What's really fail about this person is the fact that they aren't even remotely going to be the 1st person to get this one activated. They're in the central time zone. Similar iFail fans like him will be lined up in the east coast getting these phones activated and clogging up AT&Ts network, so by the time the store opens and he's able to get his phone, he'll have to wait longer than he should due to how busy AT&T is going to be, they are going to have systems going down/having trouble, there's already thousands and thousands of idiots like him that beat him to the punch... AND THEY'RE ALL PEOPLE THAT HAVEN'T GOT IN LINE YET XD
