If my memory is correct it was sometime between 1995 and maybe 2005 when two young men were in the potato chip aisle in the Pocomoke Wal Mart. For some reason they set fire to the corner of a bag of potato chips. Of course the bag burned but when the flames reached the oil-covered chips inside the bag a real conflagration ensued. The fire spread from bag to bag and the amount of smoke released was beyond anyone's imagination. I think Wal Mart had to close for almost a week just so the smoke damage could be cleaned up.
Correction....my better half says it was maybe 2012 or 2013. Time flies when you get old.
