Boy Buys Madden, Finds Disc Labeled 'Redneck Shit'

by Chris Faylor, Jan 26, 2009 9:01pm PST

When Michael's son bought a copy of Madden NFL 09 using his Christmas money, the wee lad got both more and less than he bargained for.

Instead of an Xbox 360 disc and accompanying manual, the son found a blank disc labeled "Redneck Shit," reports The Consumerist.

Though the game packaging sported all of the usual security stickers, Michael found that scotch tape was used to re-seal the game's shinkwrap, leading him to believe that someone else bought the game and returned it, sans disc, to his local Walmart.

The duo is expected to swap "Redneck Shit" for a genuine copy of Madden today.

I went over to a friends house to install a wireless modem that they bought from wal-mart becuase they couldn't figure out how to do it. No wonder, apparently someone returned it and swapped it out with some 1996 cable modem. Wal-mart is just horrible.

Long time ago I got a creative cd-rom burner from Walmart - sealed and all . Got home and there was a pottery bowl neatly packed in the sealed box. Same weight and they must have had a shrink-wrapped machine. After some bitching on my part they gave me another one. Opened it in front of them.

Or perhaps the DVD label is to be taken quite literally: as in, a slide show consisting of various angles, consistencies, and opaqueness of redneck shit.
