Same, except the one in my hometown hadn't even thrown out the VHS tapes yet. There were still aisles full of early 80s movies in their faded, original edition boxes that had probably been there since the store first opened. I remember finding "Breakin'" (the original, not Electric Boogaloo) in like 2003 when I was still in high school. The owner was a pretty cool dude, I remember apologizing for returning some cheesy sci-fi flick really late after forgetting I had it. He capped my late fees to one day and said "Don't worry about it, you're the only one who ever rents that."
