When you party at this place, you never run out of ice, chips, paper plates, beer, and soda -- all at affordable prices.
Youths who had their house party broken up by cops quickly moved the rager to a nearby Jacksonville Walmart on Saturday night, creating a veritable flash mob, according to News 4JAX.
A police report obtained by the station said the group of about 300 destroyed an electronic anti-shop lifting security scanner that costs about $1,500.
