The funny story of the 1st to buy the PS4 during the launch event

In the year 2013, when Joey bought his Playstation 4, it turned out to be a rather funny fact, as he only wanted a PS4 and had no intentions of being the first to buy it. It all started when Joey saw the announcement on Twitter that there would be a place for people to line up for the console launch event at The Starndard Hotel in Manhattan. As the place was approximately 1 hour from his house, Joey walked with his thermos to the place where the event would be.

When Joey arrived at the location where the PS4 launch event was to take place, he noticed that there were people standing at the entrance of the hotel and he was dismayed. However, then he realized that in fact the people who were standing there were women who were going to work at the event and not to buy the PS4. However, the next day, before the event took place at midnight, Joey had classes to attend, which is when he was already prepared to give up his seat as there was no colleague with him to hold the seat, but miraculously the staff of the Sony said they would save the place for him! (this is what happened later)
