Lately, there's been quite a few characters that crossed the line, and with the help of the local cops, have been asked to "just move along". There was what my fellow coworkers called "the hippy bus",---bright blue, beat up, 60's era school bus full of young, long haired/bearded guys and apparently soap deficient,----who spread their chairs, bbq grills and other stuff all over the lot around the bus. When they weren't sitting around the bus, they were sitting on top of it. Or aggressively panhandling and scaring little old ladies.
While overnighting in the lot, you're going to get noticed if you run around, not wearing ANY pants.
I kid you not, heard this from an assistant manager. Apparently drunk and disoriented, this guy got the official police invitation to stay overnight---downtown.Then a few days ago, "boat man" showed up again. Two years ago, he spent over a month, parked out towards the edge of the lot, next to a tree and shrub filled landscaping bunker. Lived in a pickup truck with camper shell, had a boat and trailer which he unhooked and left parked there. He came and went, sometimes with the boat, or just the truck or on the bike he also had. I parked and would walk past him every day, figured it wasn't my place to say anything to management. He kept to himself, was quiet.
When he left though, there were broken glass bottles, two busted up concrete blocks, assorted pieces of 2 X 4's, and what looked like from a distance---EEEWWWWWW piles of used toilet paper in the landscaping (nope, I wasn't going to take a closer look---but let the maintenance guy know to be careful when he got sent out to clean up whatever that mess was). Well, this time I notified management that boat man was back, and sure enough,---they were in the process of getting the police to send him on his way. We're a 24 hour store, we do have operating bathrooms, but he got caught squatting and doing his business in the landscaping. Good grief!
We often have people staying for lengths of time in the lot, but most try to fly under the radar, move their vehicles to different areas, are tidy. Frankly, since I spend more than enough time there already-----having the sun come up over a WallyWorld sign in the morning is something I don't ever want to see when I'm camping. Hopefully, the antics of these clowns who are sloppy, loud, disrespectful, etc. won't eventually ruin it for the folks who want to overnight park.
Da po-po got him, I think. 
If it is getting late and you are tired and still on the movetowards your ultimate destination......Walmart is the perfect place to catch some shuteye, and pick up a few grocery items, snacks, ice, and wine.
