Yeah I loved the old Atlantic City it was alot of things we can do when we were kids playing the arcades riding the rides going to the beach the good ole days
Good times, the diving horse, million dollar and steel pier, bandstand, AC was my youth and have wonderful memories of Mr Peanut, Miss America and the diving bell
Summer at my grandparents' house in AC in the 1970's was my youth. Million Dollar Pier, James' Salt Water Taffy, Dip Stix corn dogs and of course Mr Peanut! Thanx for posting!
Very nice tribute! And great song to boot. IINM, I think this song was in the 1980 film Atlantic City with Burt Lancaster... I could be wrong but I think it is.
I don't know about the 1970's but from what I have heard about Atlantic city today, other than the boardwalk and hotels on the oceanfront, the inland is rundown.
I met Gino, marchetti, in person, Glen Burnie, md, about 1 year ago. signing autographs, with a picture. I had him sign a picture of Ginos, on the Boardwalk, 1970.... I loved Ginos, food. now no more Burger king, no, Ginos,, only McDonald's..., they were okay when first opened... but I looked forward to going in Ginos, when we stayed at Seaside, motel... so close to Steel pier.... next stay will be in 2 years, Resorts international Hotel, and Casino.... taj, mahal, trumps hotel, no more,,, will soon to be open again, by help, of Tony, catonosa... owner of the Steel pier.. I spoke to him, he is a very nice man...
remember the bike rental guy, h longo, the it was and son, then sons, then sons and daughter. longo kept adding the letters and daughter as the 70s went on lol cant find any pictures or anything on him. he was an AC legend. oh and Ed the ice cream man on the beach
we stayed at the princess hotel, then they made next door the princess jr. last stayed at the geary kelton on tenn ave. the building is still there. all those nice motels are gone.
We used to Eagerly go there annually until the Mob took over&Built the Casinos,and then our Families never went North from the South ever again& Good riddance.

seaside was the best motel in 1970
It was in the early 1980s, too. I lived there in the early 1980s.
It sucks here now...
Heartbreaking
that was not the Del.Memorial Bridge!
Yes it was...
So what bridge is it..i crossed this bridge since i was 11 yrs old. Now 68. It is not the bay bridge, and sorry, its not the George Washington bridge.
We used to Eagerly go there annually until the Mob took over&Built the Casinos,and then our Families never went North from the South ever again& Good riddance.
