Sports Authority goes bankrupt, The Idiot picks up a pair of Alpine Design River Sandals for $20.98.
Although The Idiot won’t abandon his Teva hiking sandals, he couldn’t resist the prices at the Sports Authority liquidation fire-sale in Redding, CA. The bankrupt sporting goods chain with 140 stores throughout the U.S. will soon shutter its doors.
