Yeah, that NRV Mall is usually DEAD, except for MAYBE around Christmas, or when college is getting started. Lots of empty stores in there. Not even a toy store.
"Four Seasons Mall in Greensboro NC is a good example. Full of nice stores and you can still get a cap busted in yo azz in the parking lot."
I had the misfortune of going to that one last year. Didn't look like there were many actual shoppers. Only shop lifters, gang-banger types, with drug dealers. The whole time we were there, I felt the need to have a weapon drawn to give cover to my wife.... and this was just after lunch during a WEEKDAY! lol (ironically *I* was the one to get bothered by "mall security" because I had an 'e-cig') I wouldn't go to that place on a Saturday night without full body armor and automatic weapons! I believe they had some sort of gang battle/brawl around that place sometime during the past couple of years with over 200 "youths" involved. It didn't make the national news or anything, of course.
I'd rather just stay out here in the woods/mountains, and shop online. They can have their malls. lol
The NRV mall has one big ticket: New River Community College. They could anchor up that whole mall if needed. I’m surprised they haven’t occupied the Sears.
