Mall of America expects big crowds this weekend because of Eid

It may feel a bit like Black Friday this weekend at the Mall of America.

The Bloomington megamall is expecting big crowds on Saturday and Sunday as Muslims around the Twin Cities celebrate the end of Ramadan, a month-long period in which followers fast from sunrise to sunset.

Eid al-Fitr, which begins Saturday night, marks the end of the holy month.

In the day or two leading up to Eid, many families go shopping to pick up gifts for children. And when Eid arrives and the fasting is over, places like the Mall of America as well as the Original Pancake House and Chuck E. Cheese have become popular destinations for families. As a result, the megamall, as it has in recent years, is putting its parental escort policy into place all weekend as it does during other busy times such as on Black Friday and the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day.

The mall normally requires young people under the age of 16 to be accompanied by an adult 21 years or older after 4 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. But this weekend, the policy is in effect all day on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

“The mall normally requires young people under the age of 16 to be accompanied by an adult 21 years or older after 4 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. But this weekend, the policy is in effect all day on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.”

Will the Mall require females to be properly garbed from head to toe and be accompanied by a male relative?

To be that retarded and stupid requires effort. Why have we let these destructive hive-minds into America? It’s coming and these filthy trash will rue the day they came here to make America the 7th Century it never knew.

We have a brief reprieve while Trump is in office. Now is the time to be working out and improving martial skills.

Now is the time to get active in Oath Keepers, 3 Percenters and similar organizations.

Most will not. Some cannot even make the smallest sacrifice such as boycotting the NFL and NBA.

What kind of person are you?

Exactly how did Minnesota get so screwed up?

Because there’s a cure for that, a solution to the problem.

I was strolling through a mall in Amman this time last year and saw Eid ads all over the place like you’d see here on Christmas. Christmas in July...?

I was invited and went to a Chuck E Cheese last year with some relatives around the end of Ramadan.

I’ve reminded my relatives to avoid it for the next couple days.

Not sure they all understand the concept of buying food and drink and playing games..
or emergency doors- both pair of emergency doors on opposite sides of the Chuck E Cheese were being opened setting off alarms.

tough day for the crew there- and the guests.. had to beware of your own table and belongings too.
stay away is right..let them have their fun...

And to be fair, Jews and Christians would be blessed to know that the next couple days are appointed days He taught Israel too.
