Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Now I want a bam.

I work in a UK supermarket part-time - we greet people with a "Why the fuck are you looking at me".

Not as catchy but hey I don't have to touch the locals!

oh btw gotta be viral - too convenient the people coming in just happen to talk to him.

Dude I would walk into walmart just to buy a pack of gum to meat this cat.

I thought Walmart quit using greeters.

Adding video to channels (Happy) - requested by maatc.

Our Walmart greeter was kinda creepy in a stalker sort of way. We'd try to get sneak past him without being seen.

So, Walmart's greeters are actually part of their "loss prevention" system. Just having someone greet random people at the door lowers shoplifting theft. Most of them are (as this distinguished gentleman clearly is) retired folks getting a little extra income.
It's harder to make yourself steal---or maybe it stops/slows down the casual shoplifters who anxiety over being caught is suddenly heightened when someone greets them at the door to this otherwise enormous and anonymous business---especially if that greeting is a loud and enthusiastic "BAM"!
LOL

As much as I love to hate Walmart...I would love to see a greeter at any store with the positive attitude that this guy has. Keep it up Willie!

But the skeptic in me HAS to ask...is this video staged? So many people coming and going from Walmarts, and while filming, it happened that every single person walking by knew of is "Bam"? I guess it doesnt really matter if its staged or not. I like this guy.

BAM!

That was not a bam.

That was a BAYAM.

Willie adds a consonant and a vowel just for being Willie. And the capitalization is well deserved by his extraspecial all right now.

We need more people like Willie, honestly.

(He also has intense knuckle scarring from stupid kids that punch the heck out of his hand.)
