Wal-Mart

Popular Nickname:

Wally World

Did You Know?

The term "Wally World" comes from a fictional amusement park in the 1983 comedy film 'National Lampoon's Vacation.' The sheer size and "everything under the sun" mentality of the park set the tone for Wal-Mart to be called "Wally World" soon thereafter, as well as the parking lot depicted in the film -- which resembles a cement desert without end.  

Answer 5

A lot of people call it that, I don't know why. I know my dad used to call it that, and i've heard a ton of other people refer to it with the same name.
