Default RIP Hastings Entertainment

Not sure if you all are familiar with Hastings, but its basically a Barnes and Nobles crossed with Blockbuster and a comics shop.

It was always a really great place with a ton of cool movies and books.

Pretty Sad to see it go, they opened in my hometown when I was in high school or college (I dont remember lol) and I spent a LOT of time in there vs Blockbuster/hollywood video because of the books/comics/collectibles AND that they gave you credit for returning the movie the next day.

I always told my wife I missed going to the video store, yea netflix is cool, but I miss looking at the rows of movies because you find stuff you had forgotten about.

Now it seems like all we have left is netflix and redbox.

Oh well...
