Seriously, it's a good thing they didn't give that man anything with an actual point on the end or he probably would've shot someone.

Haha, I feel your pain! It's slightly easier for me, I'm kind of between an 8/8.5 — so the biggest size they have in the store will fit my feet about 50% of the time.
