    Great memories of Boomers. I remember coming here a lot of times! I visited in 2019 right before the temporary closed for COVID. They never reopened again. 😢 It’s sad to see it like this 😢 Nice video

    Loved this place. Worked at Bullwinkles back in high school. I took my kids recently, not knowing it closed down. I was so bummed.

    I used to use the batting cages when I was in Little League and take my boys to play miniature golf, play arcade games, bumper boats, etc. Sad to see it this way. All those great memories. I still remember losing the Fountain Valley drive-in and Miola Elementary school.

    I went to this one a lot. I last visited it in March 2020 before the shutdown. I remember when it was a Bullwinkles before it became a Boomers

      Born and raised in Orange County. This place was my childhood. I even went to Bullwinkles for my prom dinner because my buddy forgot to make reservations for our group. lol. Greatest time of my life. I however never recall a water slide here. I might be mistaken.

      im 50, still live in same house my whole life . in the neighborhood on the north side of the hill. I remember Malibu Grand Prix back in the 80's that was replaced by sporting goods store behind Tommy's . (before the slick track and the hotel). I also remember the Photon Laser Tag back in the 80's on the other side of Warner/ Bushard hill in the back corner by the hill in the Sizzler parking lot.

    I had lunch at Tommy’s Original across the street no more than a month ago. I parked in the old parking lot to this Bullwinkles and had my burger while I reminisced on the childhood memories. I felt disgusted seeing the druggies taking over the mini golf zone. Then 3 days later they completely leveled everything down. It’s dirt now. Which is for the best. It was starting to attract too much negative attention.

      I was at Tommy's the other day too. It was so sad to see what has happen to that place

    I swear, I live in Fountain Valley, but this place feels a bit mysterious.

    • @UrSammich
      @UrSammich 2 роки тому +2

      It's not. I used to live literally down the street from this Boomers and I grew up with it. Before it was Boomers I remember it being Wocky and Bullwinkles and the majority of the original rides that were there, such as the swinging pirate boat before it was removed and replaced with the train ride. This place was special for the locals and always a treat. I remember my last time playing mini golf, playing arcades and go kart. I didn't know this place closed. The last time I visited it was open, but this was before the pandemic. That sucks its gone and it looks like trash

      I’m almost 50 years old. I can’t even count how many times I’ve been here. So sad!! How many people remember the waterslide that they had? It was so much fun!!

    • @costamesadave
      @costamesadave  2 роки тому +1

      I actually heard that from a friend of mine, their daughter worked there five or six years ago actually now I think about maybe was like eight or nine years ago and they two were treated poorly.
      Back 15 years ago are used to have kids birthday parties there and we enjoyed it and of course when I was a kid it was always fun.
