A large crowd gathers for emergency supplies at Market Basket on Phelan Boulevard in Beaumont after it opened briefly on Sunday, Sept. 25, 2005. Shoppers were required to have a specific shopping list and pay in cash. Police were present to keep order. The store was the first to open after Hurricane Rita hit Southeast Texas on Saturday.
