Young Thug fans in Atlanta were convinced Thugger was generous enough to pay for everyone’s holiday purchases at a local Walmart on Tuesday (November 30), but it turns out they fell prey to an internet rumor.
A video posted to social media shows Young Thug fans flooding the Walmart, grabbing as many items as they can and waiting in long lines with new televisions and other goods.
“We waitin’ on Thug,” the person taking the video can be heard saying. “Thug, man, you better bring your something man, cause this shit here is a catastrophe.”
The video caption read, “Young Thug was allegedly suppose to pay for everybody stuff at the Walmart on Cleveland Ave. We don’t see anything he or his PR team put out.”
It’s unclear how the rumor got started, but needless to say, Young Thug never showed up, so many of these fans were forced to put their goods back on the shelves.
While the Atlanta-bred rapper was tagged in the Instagram video, chances are high he wouldn’t have seen it. On November 11, he admitted to his Instagram followers he largely avoids social media because it makes him depressed.
“Bro, I just noticed like when I look at the Internet, when I look at Instagram and like you know Twitter and shit, I get depressed bro,” Young Thug said in the black-and-white video. “This shit is like burnt the fuck out, bro. This shit depressing.”
Many fans in the comment section were quick to agree with Young Thug, but the same can’t be said for Offset. The Migos rapper admitted in October he was addicted to Instagram after Facebook’s six-hour blackout.
“Damn, I just noticed I’m addicted to Instagram,” he said at the time.
Damn I just noticed I’m addicted to Instagram

This is incredibly embarassing for those people. Imagine this many people being this stupid and having nothing productive to do in your life that you will drop everything to run to walmart and wait in line for hours with a thousands of dollars of shit you cant pay for and then with no consideration or forsight make the worked to the bone/short staffed walmart employees have to put it all back.
This isnt even about Thugger. This is social commentary.
This isnt about Thug. This is a damning indictment against our society.
Why would Young Thug play with people’s emotions in times like these?? SMH… Shame on you.
You think he just got bored with his millions of dollars and good relationships with super talented people and just decided to start a retarded rumor himself?
Musta been a bunch of grown ups on a 6th grade reading level who smoke weed everyday to be that stupid and naïve.
Wow those subhuman retarded mfs are dumb/pathetic.
