Haven’t seen Radio Shack yet, pretty much every one near me has closed.
Reminds me of the Australian version of Radio Shack. Dick Smith electronics is now purely an online seller rather than a "bricks and mortar" retailer:

Andrew Balkwill played one game for Carlton in the AFL, back in Round 3 of the 1997 season. He has the unique distinction of being the only player in Carlton history to have played senior VFL/AFL football without donning the famed Old Dark Navy Blue jersey, as this was the only game where Carlton wore light blue as part of a sponsorship deal with M&M chocolates.

After 307 games and 4 premierships (2008, 2013, 2014, 2015) in 15 seasons for the Hawthorn Hawks between 2002 and 2016, Sam Mitchell will be playing for the West Coast Eagles in the 2017 Australian Football League season. Another recruit for the West Coast for 2017 is Drew Petrie, who played 316 games in 16 seasons for North Melbourne between 2001 and 2016. This is the first time in AFL history that a club has had two new recruits in the same season who played over 300 games each at another club.

After Eric Cantona’s departure from French football in early 1992, he tried out for Sheffield Wednesday by playing in an indoor tournament. Before giving him a contract, Sheffield manager Trevor Francis wanted to see him play on grass and therefore wanted to extend the trial period to an extra week. Cantona refused and left and signed for Leeds United.
