iLoser retains place in line, crisis averted

Rarely does a reader-submitted tip appear so urgent that we feel the immediate need to leave the comfort of our cushy home office, but when we heard that Greg the iPhone Camper [a.k.a. New Jersey highway maintenance worker and professional line sitter Greg Packer] -- affectionately dubbed "iLoser" in the media -- had been kicked out of line at Apple's Fifth Avenue store along with the rest of the wackos hopefuls, we were obligated to spring into action and investigate. Well it turns out that the reports of Greg's preemptive removal were greatly exaggerated, as the man himself was right there yucking it up with reporters and curious passers-by just like he has been since Tuesday morning. Keep on reading for more pictures of this unlikely internet celeb, along with a few shots of the madhouse that the corner of 58th and 5th has become...






[Thanks, Jonathan]

I think Greg could benefit from more walking, less sitting.

That jerkoff does not have 600 plus tax to shell out. I think he is waiting for Someone to buy one for him. What a jerk. Makes all apple fans look bad

I hope Jobs is a sport and gives this guy a free phone! If not for his dedication to waiting in line, at least for that MASSIVE CAMEL TOE he is sporting (see main photo)!
