Scheels Billings

Sweet Mother of Commerce! And I say that with such a tone of hope and wonder under in my breath. What an incredible place. Moved to Montana from Indiana; never in my life have I been inside of a place like this. I've been in a Dick's Sporting goods, a Cabela's, I've been in a Bass Pro Shop, I've been in an Academy, heck I even went to a Gander Mountain (before they went bankrupt back in the day), and I can even recall back in my youth when Wal-Mart had places to dine inside of the store... Scheels is like a place that took all of the entities that I just listed and cross geneticized/bred all of them together and put them under one roof. One BIG, beautiful roof. Immortalized bronze figures greeting you as you walk up to the front doors, their eyes almost giving a reassuring, approving look of "Oh yeah, you go blow your whole paycheck in there, big boy!" And you know what? A person really could go blow every cent they got in that place and be totally content whenever you leave. What a beautiful, incredible place. I bet these people that are native to this area don't even appreciate it as much as us foreigners do... Ya'll probably take it for granted... The thought of that makes me sick! How about I appreciate it enough for all of us? Please bow your heads for a moment; "Our kind and most gracious heavenly father, thank you so much for the blessing of Scheels that you have bestowed upon us. Thank you for the variety, for the effects. Thank you for the Ferris wheel and the dining area, the hot food. Thank you for the kind, polo and kaki clad workers who pop up and ask me how I am doing at every corner. Thank you, dear lord. Please bless all of the workers that keep that place running every day. Please bless the other shoppers and their wallets. And lastly, thank you for letting me life in the same timeline that Scheels exists. You could have put me in the middle of the Rennaissance or in the heart of WW2, but you put me here with Scheels. Thank you. Amen!

I’ve lived in Billings MT for six years and today was my first time to experience this amazing place. I just want to wander around and experience this place more. The staff were kind and welcoming. The merchandise is a vast array of everything. The decor is off the charts! It really is a great place to experience. The fact it is employee owned makes it even better.
