Black Friday or Black Sunday?

November 27, 2011

Black Friday continues to offer real-life Gothic. This time there's a story about one shopper dropping dead in a store:

A man collapsed while doing some Black Friday shopping in a crowded store, and people nearby continued to shop.
Witnesses tell WSAZ.com some shoppers walked around and even over the man's body.

That was West Virginia. After our earlier story about an LA woman pepper-spraying for competitive shopping advantage, it looks like consumer horror is a coast-to-coast thing.
