Apple Store Colorado Springs: photos from opening day

Jo Jo, that comment really mad me laugh. Thanks

Jo jo is basically another person against the 1st amedment for people that he disagrees with.

That's fine with me and 10,000+ of my fellow Springsians... those of us with Concealed Weapon permits... see, we use the 2nd Amendment to ensure that they can complain, but can never take away anyone's 1st Amendment rights. Of course, Jo jo, i had my .45 with me when i went at 9:15 saturday morning...

there was far more than 40 people, as Jeff said. At 10:30, there were well over 200 outside, and Lord only knows how many inside the store.

There was an amount of bad planning on this - as they used the shopping center here to be the kickoff of the Firefighter's Memorial Ride. It appears as though the guys at the Apple store, in order to reduce the amount of impact that the store opening would make on such a far more important event - opened the doors before 9, as when i had gotten there, it was already stuffed with people.

Its really great to have an Apple store in our little po-dunk town... we love our little city because its not too hick, yet it hasn't gone insane like Denver (which is nothing more than Los Angeles at 5,280 feet altitude).

Its a great town because its our town - its quiet, there's little crime (thanks again to the previously mentioned hoards of gun owners), and you can be in the mountains in less than 10 minutes - out in some of the most beautiful parts of America and of the whole world.. and it feels like its all yours because there aren't millions of people clogging it all up.

And there's just enough snow to keep most of the Californians and Texans from moving here and screwing it all up.

the opening was supposed to be at 10:00, not 9:00.

when i got there at about 9:45 there were about 80 people in front of me in line, and by the time i left at 10:30, there was another hundred people in line. I was around the shopping center until just after 11:00, and there was still a line of about 100 people.

40 my ass.

I'm happy for the people in Colorado Springs, but I'm still wondering if there's EVER going to be an Apple Store in Philadelphia. :/

Wish I had gone! A rare opp for a store opening t-shirt.

Any Apple Store opening is a good thing.

I think I saw James Dobson out front protesting ... something about apple, daemons, and darwin ?
