In a bizarre twist of fate, the renowned TikTok sensation Jordan the Stallion (@jordan_the_stallion8) recently found himself entangled in a peculiar predicament while embarking on a routine shopping trip at Costco. Little did he know that what seemed like an ordinary visit to the warehouse giant would soon turn into a viral sensation, sparking debates and uproar among netizens. As he shared his perplexing experience through a now-famous TikTok video, the world discovered the tale of how Costco’s strict membership policies led to an unforgettable case of mistaken identity.

In an interesting turn of events, Jordan the Stallion (@jordan_the_stallion8), a popular person on the social media app TikTok, went to Costco for some shopping. There, he had an odd experience. One worker didn’t believe that Jordan was the same person as on his Costco membership card. They thought he was someone else – an Olympic wrestler named Jordan Burroughs. In his video, he narrated this whole story, saying, “They kept looking at me, then at the cards, and back at me, about three or four times.”

In his TikTok video, Jordan told us more about how the Costco employee checked his membership card and ID. They looked at them very carefully. Even after he showed his ID, they still asked him if he had a different form of ID. As Jordan told his followers, “They asked me if I had my birth certificate with me. But, I told them I wouldn’t bring my birth certificate to a store like Costco.”

Despite proving his identity with his ID, Jordan faced a strange issue. The Costco employee took away his membership card. They didn’t believe him when he said he was not a famous wrestler. Jordan then pointed out the differences between him and Jordan Burroughs, “I’m 6’3″, and he’s 5’7″. Plus, I’m 26 years old, and he’s 35.”

Jordan made a funny point in his video. He asked the workers, “Why would an Olympic wrestler want to buy Cheetos and pizza Lunchables?” But this didn’t convince the Costco workers. They still didn’t believe him and didn’t give back his card.

One person who saw Jordan’s video commented, “Costco needs to take it easy!” Clearly, some people feel Costco’s very strict rules about membership cards are ridiculous, and they need to be more flexible with them.

However, some people who saw Jordan’s video said this is what always happens at Costco. They believe that Costco has always been strict about its rules. As one TikTok user mentioned, “These rules are always there. But, some Costcos are more strict than others.” So, it appears they didn’t single Jordan out this time around.

Another user shared a story about how important the Costco card is. They said, “Some stores won’t let you inside without a card. I tried to meet my family, who was already inside, but I couldn’t get in without a card.” It seems Costco really is quite strict!

There are always exceptions to every rule, which also appears to be true at Costco. One TikTok user said, “I’ve been in Costco many times. I have used cards from 6 different people, and no one noticed.”

Checking Cards at the Checkout

The Costco checkout process is a common topic of discussion among customers. Many people who saw Jordan’s video shared their experiences about how Costco employees stopped them at the checkout counter. These stories showed how serious Costco is about its membership card policy.

At Costco, it appears that sharing is not always caring. Several users on TikTok mentioned that even using a family member’s card was frowned upon at Costco. In fact, in certain instances, employees refused to let customers use their family members’ cards entirely.

The Photo Doesn’t Match?

Some shoppers said that Costco workers doubted their identity because of the photo on the card. These workers didn’t believe that the person in the photo was the same person in real life, which led to this funny but frustrating situation.
