A small store owner was being pressured to sell his store to the owners of a large department store who had bought every building on the block, except his. Frustrated by the man's refusal to sell, they eventually opened their huge store on either side of the small one, with a big banner running from one side to the other, proclaiming in huge letters "GRAND OPENING". Below it, across the front of his small store, the man put up a small banner over his door: "MAIN ENTRANCE"
