A Brief History of Black Friday
Added 2021-11-23 11:15:00 +0000 UTCA great starting point for finding out about incidents which have taken place during Black Friday sales is this website, which keeps track of deaths and injuries attributable to the event year on year. I'll be watching to see if it receives an update following this year's sales!
One other thing that I wanted to share was this quote, which was given by Walmart spokesperson Greg Rossiter following the pepper spray incident in 2011:
“There were a few unfortunate incidents but overall we have received very positive feedback from our customers."
Now that's certainly a case of looking on the positive side!

Different times indeed! But, in some ways, sounds preferable to the current Black Friday.
