Flea Market Fire Devastates Vintage Game Store | Fresno News

A devastating fire tore through the Folsom Boulevard Flea Market Friday night, destroying a beloved 33-year-old vintage video game store and leaving its owner, David Smith, heartbroken after losing over 20,000 games and a 40-year collection worth more than half a million dollars. Though no one was injured and firefighters contained the blaze quickly, vendors are left grappling with massive losses — with only personal items saved. A GoFundMe has been launched for support, while Cal Expo is offering a temporary table for Halloween weekend to help David recover. This tragedy underscores the fragility of small businesses and the tight-knit communities they sustain. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
