“Jim is awesome! Got us 6 trophies in a tight turnaround for a great price. Final product is gorgeous. Will definitely be back next time we need more trophies. Thanks Great Atlantic Trophy Co!”
“I found this place last October when I was on the hunt for the perfect, good quality, well-made sneakers that would support my plantar fasitis and several ankle sprains in my aspiration to train for my first 5k race, as well as go to Disney World for the first time (hello 25k steps A DAY?!) While everyone in the store is kind and knowledgable, the first time I went I was met by Ed, who has been in this industry for decades. He took my aspiration seriously and knew I was looking for more 1-on-1 attention to detail, rather than the usual chain store where you're guessing if you're choosing the right shoe FOR YOU. He spent time with me, never rushed me, and gave me a multitude of options to choose from until I felt 100% about the pair I ended up with - in my case, the Brook Ghost Max 3. I was already a Brooks fan but to say I had used my last pair too long is an understatement. Stepping into these shoes felt AMAZING. I ended up using them all week at our Disney trip in December, alongside 7 months of running training, and my 5k race in April. I'm still using them to this day and am already prepared to get another pair soon and know just where to go if I'm ever curious about other styles. My husband was in the market for a new, solid pair of sneakers as well, so within a month of my going, he got his fresh sneaks too - ironically enough, the same ones as me. They're just the perfect supportive, everyday sneaker! Huge thank you to Ed and the Woodbridge Running Co for excellent customer service and a great stock of options!”
“I picked up my Wilson today. Amazing customer service, even better with the string quality and tension. You rock Chris! Anyone looking for a new tennis racquet or string look no further than The Racquet Koop in New Haven CT..”
“Chris is the owner and he treats his customers like family. It's not unusual for Chris to have 3 or 4 customers sitting around chewing the fat. Chris always asks if you want a cup of coffee. If the answer is yes he will fresh brew you a cup any way you want it. His shop has great prices and is well stocked. If he doesn't have it in stock he will order it. Chris works off a smaller margin than bigger stores because he doesn't have the overhead.”
“Stopped in to get my skates baked (for a better fit) and left feeling homesick for my time haunting rinks and a similarly homey shop, long since closed, in my native suburban Pittsburgh. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming, friendly, or knowledgeable, or more hockey (when I told the clerk I was a Penguins fan, he said, “I’m sorry” without missing a beat). They threw in a pair of socks and a free skate sharpening. When it comes time to gear up and shoot the puck, I’ll be back. Strongly recommended.”
“10/10 Customer service They were able to help me find what I was looking for. Even recommending another Shop that may have had it truly shows that they care about the customer.”
“Barbara is amazing! My mom is going through chemo and she was treated like a Queen, the wig looks so real. We are so happy with the service she received-the time Barbara took and the compassion. Thank you for being you Barbara! Highly recommend!!”
“First time trying to find a local barber and E&J was a great experience. Had a great conversation with a few laughs. Everyone was very nice and the cut was just what I wanted.”
“I am the President of Valley Fusion softball and I am on various booster club boards for Woodland High School. I have been working with Bobby and Blanchettes Sporting Goods for over 8 years now. We use them for all of our apparel stores which are personalized to the groups needs. Using the store and purchasing items is very easy. We also purchase all of our uniforms and most of our equipment. Bobby is always willing to assist with anything I need and goes above and beyond to help me, often delivering items to me himself. I highly recommend Blanchettes for any of your apparel, uniforms, equipment and fundraising needs!”
“My family and I have been purchasing from Soccer and Rugby for over 15 years and have never been dissapointed, EVER! Its almost magical walking into their stores as an aficionado. Very friendly, family orientated people. My parents brought me to their stores as a kid and I will do the same with mine come next year!”
“Fun for a group. Used the driving range, mini golf and arcade and had a great time. Driving range was set up similarly to top golf with games but cheaper to play which is always nice”
The outdoor retailer plans to open a 100,000-square-foot store in College Station, Texas, in 2028. It'll sit along State Highway 6, north of William D. Fitch Parkway, next to a Costco and in front of the future South College Station baseball and softball complex. On Sept. 24, the College Station City Council approved a $10.84 million sale of 28 acres in a unanimous vote. Bass Pro gets about 14 acres for its store. Dallas-based Corinth Properties will build a mixed-use project with restaurants and an event plaza on the other 14.
Fan Outfitters aims to be the ultimate one-stop shop for local professional, college, and even high school team merchandise. The company's unique "hyperlocal" approach is the brainchild of its parent company Lids Sports Group. Just six months after launching, Fan Outfitters has already opened 12 locations in cities like Phoenix, Dallas, Oklahoma City, Lexington, and Tampa. The massive 5,500 square-foot spaces are stocked with jerseys, trading cards, replica helmets, and much more across 12-15 local teams.
