It’s weird to think that today, there are still opportunities to create mythology. As evidenced by these shocking Walmart photos, that’s what regulars of the place almost are—mythological wonders you won't encounter anywhere else.
It makes you wonder, if we can create such unexplainable phenomena in this day and age, what happened on Earth in ancient history? Was there a Walmart equivalent where all the mythological creatures were born, and we greatly misunderstood their purpose? We’ll never know.
While you can't know the backstory of these Walmart pics, some people might be having a bad day, living out a challenge, or not caring enough about the world. We encourage you to have an open mind and a good time in this article, as it’s not every day you see sights like these. They are almost like Renaissance paintings—magnificent in their way, pictures without context that capture your attention in an instant,
So take a trip between the long aisles of adventures of Walmart shoppers and explore the world of the unusual. Share this article with your friends and family, and don't keep it to yourself!

I see absolutely nothing wrong here. Woman is dressed for warm weather, man is wearing regular clothes and the kid has an awesome Pikachu costume. Parenting done just fine!

Who Are the People of Walmart?
The term “people of Walmart” is often used humorously to describe the diverse and exciting characters one might encounter while visiting Walmart. It’s a lighthearted way of acknowledging the diversity of our community, highlighting that all Walmart shoppers are welcome, regardless of their style or appearance.
What Can You Expect While at Walmart?
You never know what you will find when you visit a Walmart. While you probably go armed with a grocery list or one specific item you need, the stores have everything. The massive stores are full of produce, frozen foods, snacks, cleaning supplies, shoes, clothing, you name it.
If you’re not from the United States, the idea of a store housing almost everything under the same roof might overwhelm you. And let us just say it sure can be overwhelming. The layout isn't always the same, so if you go to a new Walmart, you can easily wander the aisles frustrated, unable to find what you need for 20+ minutes.
But while you pace around the store searching desperately for the hand soap that seems to have vanished out of thin air, Walmart is a master at providing one more thing: entertainment in the form of humans doing human things.
Why not be Jill? Of course, it's not optimal, but hey, she's trying and through the glass the germs won't go
100%. She ran out of masks and she created a safe alternative. It’d get her far enough to buy more masks!

Better than refusing to wear a mask and throwing a tantrum when called out for it.
Depending how thick and dense the fabric is, i would call that a better choice than a cheap mask.
To be honest this is probably safer than what most typical Walmart shoppers wear
Why can't Jill be Jill? Seriously, there's absolutely nothing wrong with this during a pandemic when Jill is out of masks.
Wouldn't want to trip in that. Falling forward and break half the bones in her face
if my glasses are any indicator thats gonna fog up super quick but i love the creativity
Love it, but definitely had to laugh when I realized what the actual face shield is. Hey it can be cleaned and reused for cooking or a face mask. Who knew?
I’m getting a sci-fi, cyber assassin, I’ll-take-you-out-with-blue-ring-octopus vibe from this one.
Hey, I give her A for effort, which is more than I can say for 1/2 the population.
Why is It Only Walmart That Attracts Such a Diverse Crowd?
When it comes to why Walmart attracts such an eclectic crowd, we have a few theories. First, Walmart is the largest retailer in the United States and the second largest retailer globally. Because of this, it attracts massive crowds every day.
Everybody knows the Walmart name, and almost all Americans end up there at one point or another. It’s not the fanciest grocery retailer, so it is possible to avoid it, especially in cities like Los Angeles, where local chains far outnumber it. But with an average of 37 million people entering Walmart stores every week, there are bound to be some interesting characters and pictures of a lot happening around them.
And with Walmart’s reputation, it is one of the few places where you wouldn’t feel the need to change out of your sweatpants or make sure your hair looks alright before going. Walmart is a “come as you are” store, which is beautiful. And it breeds the perfect environment for capturing interesting “People of Walmart.”
What Kind of People Visit Walmart?
Many Walmart stores are open until late at night or even 24 hours a day, making the crowd more interesting. Teenagers and college kids might show up after a party for some late-night munchies, or people who have not slept in days might feel that 5 a.m. is the perfect time to go grocery shopping in their robes. Such a diverse crowd is guaranteed to bring us tons of confusing, no-context images.
We’re all for running errands outside peak hours to avoid crowds, but being open all night can open stores to a vast clientele. A great thing about this is that almost all Walmart stores allow overnight parking for free.
Free parking can be tricky in the US for homeless individuals living out of their cars or travelers moving through the country by van, but Walmart always comes through. This might be part of why the customers are so interested, but it’s a lifesaver for individuals in desperate situations who just need a place to park overnight.
You see a chocolate cake, you eat a chocolate cake. I see nothing weird about that ;)
$52 spent at Walmart. $8,500 for a necessary drip. Wait, I know what's wrong with this pic.
With phone booths getting phased out these days, superheroes are finding it hard to get changed 🤣

If you feel the need to comment of people less fortunate than you it’s probably a bad sign
BoredPanda censors it’s users (a**e, a*s, s**t, are all censored) , yet is perfectly fine posting unsolicited photos of some people (including kids) who are likely suffering mental health problems. This thread isn’t funny— it’s damned depressing. I have no idea what the hell is happening to BoredPanda anymore.

I was only once in a Walmart...I was dissapointed because I only met normal people there
300 million people, largest discount retailer, 20 year old pics - do the math.
Omg, I have two walmart stories. 1. Dude in front of the lady in front of us in the receipt check line. Unbuckled his belt, pulled his pants down, bent over and showed us his butt hole. 2. Drunk guy in the store, we reported him went on our shopping. Then, me and my sister were coming back from the bathroom and saw him in a checkput line with people behind him trying to help him stay up. Me and my sister thought that was his family. We get out of the store with our groceries and two men are on the sidewalk about to cross the lityle pharmacy drive through. We parked next to that. They ask is what our car looks like, we tell them, and they say a man is leaning on it. While drunk. There is a dirty hand print on our hood. The police come, my mom and the men talked with them and then we went home!
The Walmart in my home town was referred to as "Ghetto Walmart". It was a run down old building with an ugly green awning and Walmart painted on it in generic block lettering. I remember it fondly until it was torn down and rebuilt in the early 2000s. I think it was featured on People of Walmart's website at one point.
I'll drive past every Walmart in town to shop at Target. Target is basically Walmart without the wierdos.
