Chaos at Best Buy

The idea for this mission was submitted by a stranger via email. Agent Slavinsky wrote in to suggest I get either a large group of people in blue polo shirts and khakis to enter a Best Buy or a group in red polo shirts and khakis to enter a Target. Wearing clothing almost identical to the store's uniform, the agents would not claim to work at the store but would be friendly and helpful if anyone had a question. There aren't any Targets in Manhattan, so I decided to go with the two-story Best Buy on 23rd Street.

It's kinda like that "Best Gig Ever" Thing.

Cannot find server.It worked for me :P , it's actually a pretty funny story


Employees began asking our agents to leave the store if they weren't shopping. Most stuck to their "I'm waiting for my girlfriend" story and refused to leave. Others pretended to shop whenever employees were near by. A few were escorted out by employees.

Agent EMartin's Xbox video camera rig was discovered when an employee approached him to offer advice on how to return his Xbox. He was asked to leave, and then detained by security at the front door. There a manager claimed it was "illegal" to film in Best Buy and instructed someone to call 911. She informed him that he had violated her "civil rights" by filming in her store. Agent Nicholson, who had been taking photos at the hip to avoid detection was caught as well, but he was able to leave the store freely.

This sounds like a great idea. I've accidently walked into Target with an OU polo and khakis on before. Bad idea. :O

I've always liked the word 'chaos'.

Also, 'debris'.
