Terry Bradshaw is not happy with Walmart. The Steelers legend was in Springfield, Illinois for a horse show his granddaughter was participating in and he was sponsoring.
During a lull in the horse show action, Bradshaw says a number of children were riding bikes as a reward. His granddaughter didn’t have one so he can his family decided to go to the local Walmart and purchase one.
That’s where the trouble started.
“We couldn’t get anybody to wait on us,” said Bradshaw in a TikTok video. “We stopped three people asked them ‘would you help us buy this bike’.”
Bradshaw adds they finally got the bike down from where it was but not before asking an employee in another area for help. He said he would, but Bradshaw claims they waited 15 minutes and still no help.
He says they eventually found a hand pump and filled up the tires and took the bike to the checkout lane themselves.
“If you live in Springfield, Illinois and you want to go and buy some stuff, don’t go to Walmart . . . go to Target, go to Home Depot, see if the service is a little better there,” said Bradshaw
“I’m shocked that these people are making billions of dollars a year, yet the service is so bad,” added Bradshaw. “I hope they get this message, Walmart, because I’m a little ticked.”
Bradshaw says he’ll never go into that particular store again.
In a follow up video, Bradshaw addressed the Walmart video on Thursday calling it “a bad day” and that he was “at the end of [his] rope.”
He also said he’s “cooled off” and that he has nothing but love for the people who of Springfield, with one woman even making him a pie.
Bradshaw also is encouraging people to drop it when it comes to the Walmart incident, but it’s hard to put that toothpaste back in the tube, especially when you go on social media and broadcast it.
