Quoted from Colsond3:Unfortunately, I’ve had this happen 5 or 6 times on games I’ve picked up. People replace with plate glass because it’s cheaper and more accessible, even at HD or Lowe’s.
Very dangerous, and I get rid of it right away considering I have a 6 year old daughter, and she and her friends play the games frequently.
Even a rogue airball that whacks the glass could shatter it while you’re playing. Glad you got it out of there finally.
A good friend of mine works at Lowe’s and he tells me lots of crazy stories of people who wanna replace all sorts of shit with some cheapo thin glass they have. They often ask questions and will try to determine if it’s a situation where plate glass is dangerous, like home windows or coffee tables and such. People get pissy and write bad reviews cuz they won’t let them possibly kill themselves with huge chunks of glass
