COPS SHUT DOWN HIDE-AND-SEEK GAME AT IKEA

In Europe, a trend of playing hide-and-seek at IKEA stores has picked up steam in recent years. More than 3,000 people were planning to play a giant game of hide-and-seek at an IKEA in Glasgow, Scotland, but a team of police officers shut it down. The game was being planned on a Facebook event page, prompting the store to call police. Five cops stayed at the IKEA for the entire day on August 31st, stopping everyone who looked like they were there for a game of hide and seek. Players hide in everything from refrigerators to bed frames and the huge stores are the perfect spot to play. Ultimately, there were no arrests.
* IKEA got the game players out of their store, AND off their lawn. And no, they can’t have their ball back.
* I don’t know about hide-and-seek, but you could play musical chairs in there for days.
* Little known fact: “Ollie ollie oxen free” is actually the Swedish national anthem.
* Sadly, two guys named Glenn Macdonald and Liam Campbell are still missing.
* Usually, when I go to IKEA with my wife, I play hide the wallet.
* Dummies! IKEA should sell tickets to a monthly “Hide-and-Seek Night”, and the winner gets a gift card. You’re welcome.
* I play hide-and-seek at Costco. Every two weeks they move everything to a different aisle in the warehouse so you can’t run in and grab something and run out, you have to walk the whole store. Bastards.
