Kid’s Videogame Nothing But “Redneck S—”

Disclaimer: This post is not racist and has no gripe against men with mullets (because who doesn’t want a party in the back) or farmer’s tans.

Now that that’s done. How would you like it if your kid spent his hard-earned (from Gran) Christmas money at the store, and all he ended up with was redneck you-know-what?

That’s what happened to a Consumerist reader, whose son went to Wal-Mart and bought what he thought was the new Electronic Arts game, Madden 09.

Only instead of a disc he could slip into his shiny white XBox, inside there was a CDR with the words “Redneck S–t” (see, the disclaimer stands). The letter writer says he called the store, and they’re supposed to make good on the screw-up.

My question – what would you do? Grab the thing and run horrified away from your kid? Do you use this as a teaching moment (stealing’s wrong m’kay) or simply get indignant and let ‘em see you really pissed?
