One of the escalators had stopped working at the mall, so instead of using it like a staircase, they put gates on both sides with an 'out of order' sign and cops to guard it and rerouted 'traffic' to the nearest elevator.

OMG this might be the best I have ever heard. DOn't get me wrong or anything by saying this, but something like that would be labled over here in Europe as 'Typical American'. Especially the cop.... that is the icing on the cake. *shakes head*

No offense taken, I feel the same way sometimes and I'm an American.

Just out of interest... were there any stairs or was it one of these buildings that just don't have stairs?Just out of interest... were there any stairs or was it one of these buildings that just don't have stairs?

There was one flight of stairs, two if you count the broken escalator ;), and a crowded elevator beside the escalator.
