Can you smell the sausage and peppers and that salty/fishy smell under the boardwalk? And my favorite indoor activity was SkiBall. I wasn't greedy. I would go for the 40 hole. And when the game was over the bell would ring, counting my score and spitting out those ticket. It took 15 hundred points to get a balsa wood plane that could do loop de loops and cost 15 cents in a store. But that didn't matter. I wasn't spending money, I was making an investment in learning yet another useless skill like diagramming sentences or counting to a hundred in Roman Numerals.

I can smell the sausage and peppers, but I prefer to forget the smell of fish.

I love fish - have it several times a week - but if a fish smells fishy it is bad and not worth tasting.

Riverview in Chicago's North Side was the best!

Especially on 2 cent day when most of the rides cost 2 cents with admission at 6 cents (or so).

A triple tie for 1st place...Coney Island, Brooklyn N.Y.-Seaside Boardwalk, Seaside N.J.-Hershey Park, Hershey Pennsylvania. Beautiful memories. Seaside still in rough shape after The Sandy Storm, they are really trying to return it to it's glory day's.

I was a Manhattan West Side kid, and for us Palisades Park across the Hudson was always the very best and most accessible.

But I must also give a nod to Rockaway Playland where I spent many a day down on NYC's "Irish Riviera." Great memories from the fifties and early sixties.

You can't beat Playland Park in Rye NY, one of the oldest and so clean and attractive. When I was a child I used to love Waldemere in Erie Pa

Buckrow Beach in Hampton, VA. 10 cent rides on Wednesday night.

As a kid... Pine Island Park in Manchester, NH and Canobie Lake Park in Salem, NH. Then, as an adult, Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. Nothing compares to Cedar Point.

Doesn't anyone else remember Uncle Milty's? I was beginning to think I imagined it.

Santa Cruz Beach and Boardwalk. Loved it age six, loved it when I went back as a teen, enjoyed it as an adult. Really liked Magic Mountain in SoCal before the gangs took it over. Any Six Flags is on my wish list. But Santa Cruz will always be number one and Coney Island number two.
