It was like it was a little Coney Island, only bigger, from what they say in the film. The West Haven/Savin Rock fire depts. have a long history as well. Seems just around recessions there was always a big fire taking out a landmark, sadly. The 1938 hurricane destroyed the roller coaster. A local girl won Miss America in 1933, she was only fifteen at the time. They instituted a minimum age not long after.
Well it's almost July 4th, God Bless America, and Coney Island looks like it will recieve a visit from Kobayashi. His condition, was it a ruse, to throw off Joey Chestnut, who just broke a record? Or will he be doping to make it through? Who knew there was an IFOCE?
And who could guess such an innocent face would bely such a ravenous machine? Her specialty is hard boiled eggs. Holy Cool Hand!
She'll be there. The event has seen scandal, this year the suspense is just coming right back up!!

I just find the history if old carnivals,sideshows,amusemnt parks and boardwalks so interesting. What connecticut needs ,and we have the real estate.Is to bring back and re-create the old amusement park / Boardwalk. Pleasant beach in bridgeport perfect spot. you cant go wrong with sideshows and freakshows like the good old days.They still do it at Coney Island.
OUTSTANDING!!!! Job with this. I remember going to Jimmy's in Savin rock with my family as a kid. Yhey had rides and white birch beer soda. I think I have just travelled back 35 years. Am heading to Belmont today and next week will be in C(o)oney Island. Pix will come.
oh, but we have plenty of freakshows here in bridgeport already!
Regarding the freak shows in Bridgeport local talent, always good for the economy. just think the money that would be raised, might even lower taxes , unemployment, welfare. I can just here it now. YO U need two tickets to see my _itch swallow this sword. and the smell of corndogs in the air
