- Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -2/+44So after you get your PS3, he takes the $1k and punches you and takes your PS3
great idea - DiggityDugged, on 10/12/2007, -1/+31haha i actually didn't see that coming. nice find.
- praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -2/+26Why don't you ask him?
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19From the article:
Nope, it's not two 20G PlayStation 3 models, it's the price of some guy on Craigslist offering his services as a bodyguard. Imagine, you're in line, and some punk 12 year old cuts in front of you after you've waited for 38 hours. What happens next? Check the picture above. Big Brotha' Willie stands 6'7" and can "hurl a 160lb body ten feet off the curb." Apparently the $1,000 also covers two to three hours of friendship. Gee, what an awesome guy! Mr. Entreprenuer also offers a $1,050 package for the high rollers our there. What's the $50 for you ask? Elbow throwing, what else?
But seriously, props to him. If I were a large black man, I would do this too. No charging for elbow throwing though, that's just pure satisfaction. Don't feel bad for the guy paying $1,000 to some guy to protect him, feel bad for the people who get f*cked up when they try to cut you in line because in the end, the puny nerd has a PS3. Still skeptical? Check out his ad, complete with picture, here.

- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13What I hate most about Destructoid is that I have to scroll down 400 pixels just to get to the beginning of the story.
- Jrr6415sun, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12He's looks a little too skinny to me... and like he's 16
- Celsius032, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15what kind of a bodyguard name is "Willie"?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -8/+17"What's big, black, and $1000?"
Did the Amistad just sail into port? - mightymouse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7He's mean looking, I'll give him that.
- Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8there seems to be a group of people that work with the site and promote stuff to get it to the front
- bking, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I've never blocked anybody based on one comment before.
Bravo. - Ignorant, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10PS2 is old news, you're right.
- Spazkake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I thought the answer was going to be a Ps3, but close enough.
- Supertrout, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5"What's big, black, and costs $1,000?"
My ex-wifes heart, and the monthly payment she drains from me. - NYC10004, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4He actually looks like he's trying to hold it together without cracking up laughing..
- metafore, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3it shouldn't surprise you that he's from oakland.
and this isn't a joke. - aluhain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Might want to look into a personal nuclear device, much cheaper. Besides, why would he need money when he can just roundhouse anyone that doesn't give him what he wants?
- Kelmon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I wonder how much Chuck Norris and a roundhouse kick would cost...
- eplawless, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2CriticalImpact ε Canada
- samanathon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2And yet, you took the time to read this post . . .
- jstem1994, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Maybe he's a school janitor by day....
- praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -2/+3No...try $600.
- PeTeRZz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1'image removed'
anyone host it again? - MattyLite, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Because if he asks, he'll be uppercut in the face.
- AgentAnderson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Mirror of the ad is where?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1For a $1000, I expect someone to wait in line for me while I sit nice and warm inside my house. Can willie do that?
- typeronin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not a bad idea. I highly recommend bringing at least one friend...even if he isn't big, black or costs $1000. Some of my lining up experiences are here...
http://www.ededition.com/ps3-launch-sitting-outside-in-the-cold-is-not-fun/ - malkir, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1For a thousand dollars I'll help anyone cut in front of this guy.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You're a *****' moron dude...
If you hate the PS3 and Wii so much why are you wasting your time here?
I'm gonna follow bking's lead and block you too. - cmykdesigns, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1He's got CRAZY eyes!
- GoIgo13, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I'm going to start a campaign to dig all console launch material now, just for you.
- timwesley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Someone took my picture and put it on this ad. I am not even from that area; I'm from upstate New York. My name is Tim, not Willie. I waited in line and got a Wii. I don't even like playstation. www.myspace.com/timothywesley
- Sandkat, on 10/12/2007, -4/+4Oh ya? Well....your momma. That's right, I went there.
- 3ntropy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Seriously. No one would have even heard of Destructoid if not for that Jack Thompson hearing.
- ZenMojo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1His neck looks too small for some reason.
- wyomingred, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Why does it not surprise me he's from Oakland? That's one bad *****. I wonder if he has a trench coat and sunglasses?
- blinky04, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1I'd pay him to beat his way to the front, but I think I'd rather just pay him to stand in line for me.
Few hours of friendship sounds temping though, he looks like such a fun-loving guy. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0bunch of no lifes, arent you supposed to be in a tent waiting by wallmart or something, or you not allowed to go out after 9 pm? hahaha
- plokij909, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0"Imagine, you're in line, and some punk 12 year old cuts in front of you after you've waited for 38 hours. What happens next?"
Only a nerd wouldn't stand up to a 12 year old. - Domestiques, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0his face must be disproportionately small for his body, and he looks around 12, I say bring it on Willie.
- nekaidesigns, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0"Destructoid is such a ***** dumb website. Who cares? (besides the people that have dugg it you smartasses)"
Yeah, who gives a *****? Aside of course from the people who have clicked a very convenient button on this website, stating that they do, in fact, give a *****. Aside from them. - spacebar14, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Wow, I love how when you click the picture in the article, it takes you to.... erm.. wait... the article?

- stoops, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Let me try again for him, the PS3 and Wii are soo old news.
- navarone, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Hey Blackie, don't you know "wallmart" is spelled with a star? its Wal*mart. get it right or its another 300 years of slavery for your people.
