    This is clearly a ploy by Hot Topic to start getting customers who are older than fifteen years of age. I doubt it will work.

    Hahahahaha. I really doubt they’re going to run out of space, unless only the really fat kids show up - and they won’t be able to wear the clothes sold there anyway.

    I was wondering if you have to be 16 to enter this contest? I just want to make sure. I don’t want to show up and not be able to play, so, can anyone tell me if you have to be 16 or not?
