Following a heavy snowstorm in Denmark;s Aalborg around 25 IKEA workers and six customers were forced to spend the night at the home furnishing store.

According to reports, the group didn't panic and some even stayed up watching Christmas movies and a Liverpool-Everton soccer match using a big projector. They even played card games and enjoyed the food from the staff cafetaria.

“It was a once in a lifetime experience. I have been working in IKEA, and I’ve never experienced this before,” said Peter Elmorose, the store manager.
