And they've been doing this to the pawn shop for at least two years. Google pawn stars battletoads. Plenty of youtube hits etc. At one point Rick even offered to buy a copy and pose for pictures if the guy brought one in. Also, this.

I went into their store and asked them if they had any BattleToads. Then their security guy wakled me out.

Look, we have had a lot of prank calls tonight.

Oh. Well anyway my grandfather served with a detachment of french troops during the war called "bataille des crapauds".

Guess he took french in HS.

I was in the store on my last trip to Vegas. It's basically a joke, there is hardly anything in there, and they have turned it into a money-whoring bonanza with Chumlee's face on everything.

The Store itself is one long and narrow isle, with a large wherehouse behind it.

I miss the old History Channel, now it seems like it's just a bunch of shows about people working, same for Discovery. Is there anything still worth watching on there guys?

Are there any Redditors out there willing to dress up as Battletoads and walk into the store?

Herborist · 2 months

I'm confused. Are they out of Battletoads? I better call and find out.

iFrogger · 2 months

I've been calling their phone for months now. Ask them how long their swords are. also, ask them this exact question. "Which is longer, a rope?"

bitch_im_a_lion · 2 months

We used to get battletoads calls from teenagers at GameStop when it was a popular prank a few years back. Instead of raging or hanging up we started telling people we actually had it. When they were taken aback by the answer we would tell them "yeah, there has been so much intrest in it lately that they re-released it as a dlc for 10 bucks."

Spongebobrob · 2 months

When I was about 10, my brother, some friends and I were having a sleepover birthday party.. we thought it would be funny to prank call a sex line and play the battletoads music to them.

Bill for like 500 dollars came at the end of the month.. needless to say my dad did not find the explanation humorous

I'm not even making laughing noise, i wheezing and clapping like a retarded seal. This is so full of win.

Jess_than_three · 2 months

Yeah, it's awesome to fuck with people who are trying to do their job!

I'll be honest, though: I used to work at a Gamestop, and we got a bunch of Battletoads calls once while I was there. It was honestly kind of entertaining, only because it was such a slow day. My boss started answering the phone something like "Thank you for calling Battletoads..."

Had we been busy, though, it would've been obnoxious as hell.

wolvesvane · 2 months

has anybody here tried it yet? i may...
