  • In 1998 Ames held some sort of contest where each store created an Ames video. Several coworkers, including myself, extolled the awesomeness of Ames and Joe Ettore, the top guy at Ames, to the song Proud Mary as sung by Tina and Ike Turner. Actually the beginning of the song is sung (badly) by yours truly and a coworker. We didn't have much time to practice, and recorded it twice just in case the second one was better than the first. Ironically, Ames went out of business in 2002 but the dates on those pieces of paper went from 1958 (when Ames started) to 2003. Wishful thinking in retrospect.

    I have no idea what's going on here but I can't believe my luck in finding this. This is one of the very best things I've ever seen on the Internet.

    Why does 1998 look like the 70's?

    You don't see people having fun like this working at a store any more. No one looks happy to be there today. This was a more simple time. We had an Ames near where I grew up that was converted from a Zayre's, but I never went there.

      It was a decent store. Was way cheaper then JC Penny and Sears. There were 3 stores within 30 minutes of my house. Only other store I liked better, were Hartz/Big Bear. They had a sweet hunting/fishing department.

    Exhibit one on why Ames went out of business.
