The world's last Blockbuster video store is located in Bend, Oregon.

And despite everyone streaming content even more amid the coronavirus pandemic, it's still holding strong as it has reopened for customers to come inside.

While the store closed briefly, it started curbside pick-up at the end of March.

Now there's a limit to 10 customers inside at a time and directional arrows in aisles help abide by social distancing guidelines.

Vice reports that customers have told the store's owners that they're tired of flipping through streaming services over & over again and are relieved that the store has remained in business.

Throughout the pandemic, all of its 12 staff members have remained employed & merchandise sales on items like their “I SURVIVED ALONG WITH THE LAST BLOCKBUSTER” bumper stickers have helped to allow them to continue operating.
