    Can anyone confirm that RTIC is selling their coolers in the attic?

    The store was probably paid for by RTIC.

    Anybody remember the TV show American Chopper?  It jumped the shark when they built a huge ego pumping retail store.

    This seems like a bad idea.  Just a huge drain on company resources with no payback.

    Nah - those that clamor for self-esteem through high dollar purchases will swarm the place.

    I have a buddy in TX that bought a $500 Festool shop vac...no doubt he will camp out for a week to be first in line at Yetiland.

    Going to Franklin's BBQ is on my bucket list. I could see myself stopping by there to have a drink (which will probably be stupidly expensive) and check it out while in Austin. Even the article says they aren't expecting everyone who walks through the door to buy something.
