There must be some element of adventure in doing this. Otherwise it's just... ridiculous.

They have to tear the tents, etc. down a certain time before the store opens and then can sit in camp chairs, but no cover. BTW -- Many of them are simply in line to sell their spot or their tickets for items to someone who is way back in line. The bargain can become quite costly this way and a nice profit for the guy camping out right now.
I know it's strange, but I like shopping on Black Friday. Not a lot -- usually in and out in one hour, but watching the crowds and the looks of joy if they manage to pick up what they want. (Really don't like the looks of disappointment when they don't get it.)
