ReplyDeleteOnce you paid to enter you had access to all of the acts including the "animal oddities."
Fun...
It IS fabulous when enlarged...I found myself gasping. LOL. Thanks for sharing the stories and pictures.
ReplyDeleteAre the pier posts in the far right middle of the picture a demolition or a new construction? Does anyone know?
ReplyDeleteI still cannot believe it's gone. Some of my best memories as a child were here. The only time we ever got to go to the movies, see live acts AT ALL!! Too bad the casinos can't spend some of their money to bring back such a place to the Great Jersey Shore.
