Reminds me of the old Steven Wright routine, where he says, "I have a full size map of the world at home...the scale says, "One mile equals one mile"..."
It's called the Country Boy Store.
In the Kentucky countryside off of I-24
between Paducah KY and Clarksville TN.
40mm antiaircraft gun out front.
Their facility is essentially three old barns
and the remains of a real old country store,
all kind of nailed together.
Inside, lots of old military surplus, shirts,
hats, BDU's, etc.
Plus an enormous stockpile of guns and ammo.
I've seen Uzi's, AR-15's, every conceiveable
pistol, Lugers, etc. Old grizzled characters in overalls run the place. Lately they've come up with a lot of old surplus furniture and computer gear (Fort Campbell army post is just down the road). If you've ever wondered what a KY army surplus store should be like, this is the place.
I remember standing in a circle of guys at the arcade several nights in a row, taking turns pumping tokens in a full-frontal assault on getting past the first obstacle. We had one guy who could past the first few and actually play for like, 10 minutes... his name was Moses, or Jesus, or something like that. I remember seeing Daphne for the first time, there was a real raw sexuality about the way she was drawn and depicted that made us all stand there slackjawed. I never knew anyone who beat that game.
