Unaccompanied minors are being banned from Mall of America on Black Friday.
The Minnesota mega-mall doesn't want teens to just come and "hang out" on one of the busiest shopping days of the year.
Officials also don't want a repeat of last year's chair-throwing free-for-all which happened two days after Christmas.
This year unaccompanied minors will be barred all day November 23rd and the entire week between Christmas and New Year's Day.
Last year, Mall of America saw a record 219,000 shoppers on Black Friday.
