It is further removed from the gaming section and more of a large restaurant area with gigantic TV screens. See this link for a photo of the area. https://maps.app.goo.gl/AZWDMCX1Emtu4Q6s8

Should be re-branded to “Frustration-Inducing” Packaging.

Target has the same deal, and if you have a RedCard, it will save you almost all of the taxes.

For all the physical stores that are closed in that airport, this kind of makes sense. Who is in charge of restocking it I wonder? Paula?
