Shoppers continued to flock to the new Bass Pro Shops in Sayreville on its second day of business Thursday.

A line stretched around the parking lot before doors opened at 9 a.m. The first 200 customers received free YETI water bottles.

For some shoppers, the store’s arrival has been a long time coming.

“A long time coming for this Bass Pro to finally get into New Jersey,” said Rob Lang of North Plainfield. “One of my really good friends is actually working here in his dream job. I couldn't get in here last night because it was a zoo.”

Opening-night crowds packed the store Wednesday, but shoppers said the crowds were more manageable during the day Thursday.
