If you enjoy sitting in traffic and circling endlessly in overcrowded parking lots, then you’re in luck! The new Tanger Outlet Mall officially opened this morning, just off Interstate 71 at the Route 36 exit between Delaware and Sunbury. Shoppers jam packed the shopping center this morning to take part in the opening of the initial 74 stores at the mall.
Members of the media were invited to a ribbon cutting ceremony at 10am, but were not provided with any parking accommodations. After 45 minutes of circling the parking lot and receiving no assistance from event organizers except for a “sorry about that” text message, Columbus Underground decided that the experience was complete for anyone looking to visit the outlet mall on opening weekend.
