Bed Bugs in Niketown

Reaction To Bed Bugs In Niketown: "Ew!"


 After midtown's Niketown "proactively" closed due to a bed bug infestation, Air Jordan shoppers were shocked to find the store's windows covered in brown paper and signs saying they are "closed until further notice." But once they found out why they shuttered, they didn't want to go anywhere near the flagship. One Staten Island resident told the Daily News, "Ew! It makes you not want to go into stores. I'd rather shop online now than buy something and bring the bugs into my house." And that's how the internet finally killed real life shopping.

  2. it's a quote from gothamist. kind of ambigous. it is possible they have shutters. shuddered means to shake so it's probably not that. my guess is that they actually meant "shut down"
