Also Friday, police at a Fort Worth mall used pepper spray to disperse an unruly crowd waiting to buy Michael Jordan shoes.

We used to have shoe riots here in Indy, but they went to a system where you have to pick up a ticket in advance (days in advance) to purchase the shoes. And they only offer as many tix as there is merchandise.

Seems to work ok, but it does p!ss me off knowing that most of these youts buying $200 shoes are also on medicaid, ebt, section 8, obamaphones, etc.
