The line must be drawn here: gamers stand up to would-be robbers

August 2, 2010 News 2 Comments

Devin Wolery was watching over the nine customers of his internet gaming cafe one night, when two random encounters wearing masks came in and began harassing him. He went for the panic button, but police would be minutes away. The two then attacked Wolery, punching him twice in the face before his party members noticed anything. The intruders demanded money from the approaching nerds, who complied. One robber tried to take a man’s DS.

That’s when it was on like Donkey Kong.

In the words of Wolery: “They tried to take his DS, his Nintendo DS and he wasn’t having that — so he came back swinging.” The other gamers became inspired by this heroic act.

The swarm of nerds reached deep within themselves to find the fury instilled by years of bullying. As it is said, “injustice boils in men’s hearts as does steel in its cauldron.” The attackers were overwhelmed by nerd fury. Beaten down, they escaped the store humiliated.
