Since I grew up in St. Petersburg back in the 1960's we went to Busch Gardens in Tampa all the time. Why not, it was Free. They actually had a factory tour of the bottling plant and all adult visitors were allowed 3 free draft beers.

In 1968 -1969 I was enrolled at St. Petersburg JC studying Hotel Restaurant Management. In the fall of '69 I came to class one day and there was all these people in the hallway wearing suits. Nobody wears a suit in Florida, so I asked what was going on? Disney World was interviewing for positions at the new theme park.
