Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy bacon
The mod edit is spot on lol
There is still at least one open Gabe's in the North Hills.^
There was an outlet store in Pittsburgh called Gabriel Brothers which sold clothes at a discount, that were usually irregular for some reason.
For instance I bought a Starter Hartford Whalers jersey, (Brendan Shanahan, #94) which there were no defects on so I purchased it dirt cheap.
A buddy of mine was so proud of his Red Wings jacket that he bought cheaply as well.
After he got it home he realized the patch on the sleeve had Detroit spelled Detriot lol
Every time I see one of these fanatic screw ups it reminds me of Gabe’s

Edit: also, West Mifflin, Monroeville, Butler and Washington.
They are even in different states!Wow no way, good to know. I haven’t even thought of one of those for probably 25+ years now

Gabe's is trying to become like a TJ Maxx or Burlington competitor and they opened a bunch of stores in Columbus. I was kind of excited because when Mrs 43 was in school at Frostburg we used to find the wildest stuff there. I got a few pairs of Levis Jeans for like 5 bucks each because the back pockets were sown shut. Quick attack with scissors and good as new.Wow no way, good to know.

The new stores don't have that stuff anymore, unfortunately. It's all stuff other stores couldn't sell.
I don't even go anymore for the clothes, but I do sometimes find snacks and candy that can be hard to find anywhere else, more like an Ollie's or Big Lots.Gabe's is trying to become like a TJ Maxx or Burlington competitor and they opened a bunch of stores in Columbus.

Completely unrelated thought......I was watching women's college volleyball the other night..... and their uniforms were awful. Could Fanatics step up and outfit them?
And for the folks that don't know trying on see thru clothes is a huge genre on Youtube. Don't ask how I know.
Now if you said WNBA I might have to call 911 so the authorities could come check in on you and your well being.Completely unrelated thought......I was watching women's college volleyball the other night..... and their uniforms were awful. Could Fanatics step up and outfit them?
Hey its getting better. I see more women's college basketball than WNBA (because it's on in bars/restaurants a lot) but there are probably a couple of women on each team I wouldn't mind seeing in see through Fanatic uniforms with their names and/or team name misspelled.Now if you said WNBA I might have to call 911 so the authorities could come check in on you and your well being.
Anyone else old enough to remember how most women athletes looked in the 70s and 80s? Huge difference now.
@dash had a swimsuit poster of Nancy Lopez hung on the inside of his closet door for his special "me time" fun.
Ray Knight like thisIt was a sad day when Nancy supplanted my Farrah Fawcett poster, but I stand by my decision to this day.
