Fry's Store "Themes"

[PoPPeR]

Link

Did you know that every Fry's store has a "theme" to the design? I've only been to the Fremont one, ableit like 50 times in the past year, and I never noticed that the store was designed with a theme in mind. It looks like any Costco or other warehouse type store. How do the other Fry's look? On the website they say they have things like Roman themes, The Wild Wild West, Egyptian themes, etc. Fremont pays tribute to the origins of electricity... wtf... how do u do that

fountain valley is the roman one
anahiem is a space-ish theme
city of industry is homosexual german construction worker theme

 

[GnomeCop]

you should go to the one with the "inside the human body" theme

 

[PoPPeR]

are they actually cool to look at or are they just eh...

the best reaction to the themes is..."why the fsck?"

ic... no wonder no one has ever cared enough to mention the themes before. They sound cool, but I guess it wasn't executed very well

the one by manhattan beach has that hawaiian theme
lol @ the city of industry one

The San Jose location on Brokaw has a Mayan theme, and the one on Hamilton has an Egyptian theme

Irvine - Roman
Manhattan Beach - Tiki (polynesian)
Burbank - UFO (my favorite)

The Fremont one's supposed to be like the World's Fair or something.

The one here in Sacramento is a movie theater.

Houston one has a oil darrek/general oil industry theme to it... kinda lame if you ask me.

 

[PoPPeR]

I know all the themes... they're listed in the link, I just wanted to know if the themes actually looked cool

 

[spidey]

Ah... well, the Mayan one is cool, the Egyptian is so-so.

They should have one with the Theme of the Taj Mahal!

has anyone ever been to the Fremont one? I'm tryign to picture it now and I still dont' believe that there was a theme when they designed that store. It looks like an ordinary store, actually it looks even less "special" then most stores out there

 

[spidey]

The only thing I remember about the Fremont one is the Jacob's Ladder (think that's what it's called) in the back.

 

[Red Dawn]

The one in Cambell should have a Concentration Camp Theme

I like the Mayan one

The Fremont one has a working Tesla Coil that they set off every once and awhile. It's pretty cool.

austin's looks ok. though going to fry's and the entrance being made up of a huge piano is *different* the first time you go.

 

[SackOfAllTrades]

that link is full of lies, there is no flowing aquaduct in the fountain valley one.

 

[ReiAyanami]

san jose has the messy mayan theme with the plain conrete floors and product labels in the wrong places

In Arlington, Texas ours has a crappy-worn-out-warehouse theme!!!

It is a trashy, yet extrememly user-friendly, store.

 

[bolomite]

the theme for all their stores should be the movie 'Clueless', as this describes their employees
