Thousands of people on Thursday flocked to Bass Pro Shops in Bridgeport for its first full day of business.

The outdoor sporting goods retailer opened Wednesday night.

Customers say they've been waiting a long time for the store to open. It offers hunting gear, clothing and amenities like an educational aquarium.

Bass Pro Shops joins a Starbucks and Chipotle in the Steelpointe Harbor development. City officials say other businesses planned to open in the complex include a T-Mobile store, a movie theater and a hotel.
