I'm m sorry to hear they're closing. I like our local store. It was formerly, a Circuit City..and we know they all went under. The building (a nice one with good parking) sat vacant for years, then Sports Authority moved in, and it seemed like a good fit.

I hope the employees are able to find other jobs very quickly.

I live pretty rural. We got a Sports Authority about 2 years ago. ******'s Sports came in about 9 months later and Sports Authority closed shortly thereafter. It didn't even make it a year here.

I checked the store locator and the closest store to me is in Michigan. Guess that's why I've never heard of them.
Regardless, it's sad.

The one near me is in a mall area, it's the Paramus store, if you know where that is. Wonder what will go in there, we have plenty ,of stores now in Paramus. Will probably sit there
And there is a Richards store near by too,

It was very sad to hear this but I honestly can say I don't remember the last time I went to a SA and I used to shop there a lot in the past. I have two children ages 26 & 30 and they rarely shop at a B&M store. At Christmas time my DS orders all gifts on-line & has them shipped to our address. I think that a lot of B&M stores are hurting.

The one nearest to me already had their closing sale a few months back so i picked up a few workout shirts. I haven't been in there in quite a number of years because they were always too expensive and rarely had sales. I could always get the same items elsewhere for less than retail price ,which is always what they charged. I am actually surprised they made it this long since they didn't seem too concerned about being competitive with other stores (online and b&m) even though they were never busy, in fact, pretty dead most of the time even, around Christmas.

It was mentioned in the local tv news last night; probably a reminder to shoppers. They said Broncos jerseys were selling for less than they are at the Broncos store, but I don't know if they have them for all the team members or just the most popular ones.
Always sorry to see something like this happen. It has such far-reaching consequences for all of us in terms of the economy. I sure hope the SA employees can get re-employed elsewhere quickly.
