Hordes of people descended onto a massive warehouse in Calgary today to get their hands on Fargo set memorabilia, looking for the strange and the nostalgic — and bargain basement deals.

Before 10 a.m., hundreds of people lined up hoping to score anything from Bakelite clocks to old Buicks — even Billy Bob Thornton's jeans — from Seasons 1 and 2 of the popular television show.

It seems the organizers of the event were unprepared for the number of people who showed up, having little time to talk to a CBC reporter.

The warehouse held more than 10,000 items, and that did not include racks and racks of wardrobe items worn by the show's stars.

Meanwhile, here's what some folks were up to at the sale today.
