i was in a coin shop in alhambra earlier this week. got to talking about pawn stars somehow. the guy told me that the Harrisons own about ten different pawn stores in vegas now, and that they film in a studio that was built to look exactly like their main pawn shop. on the show they have a warehouse, but I'm telling you there's just no room for a warehouse at the location they show on the tube.
i've been to the main pawn shop and it's a dump in the back half. couldn't believe how much "pawn stars" crap they were selling - t-shirts, mugs, mouse pads, you name it - and most of the things in the show cases are way more expensive than i could afford.
