I discussed earlier today the absolute stupidity of an event that happened here in Memphis where people actually thought that Grizzlies player Zach Randolph was paying off people’s MLGW utility bills if they paid on the convenience store kiosk’s today , something that you would think no one would treat seriously, but, in typical Memphis style, people lined up for in droves.

Now I present to you a collection of tweets regarding this event. Be prepared, they shed quite a bit of light on this supreme example of people not thinking things through. Seriously, this should have been obviously bullshit to anyone who would think about it for more than half a second, or more correctly, those who don’t believe everything they see by default.
Let’s begin!
No #MLGW bills being paid from a #ZBo gift today. Lines forming all over. #MLGW says call 544-6549 if you show 0 balance. #Glitch pic.twitter.com/napmWNkdA6
