The eviction notice is for the 15th, so there's still hope...and if the eviction moves forward, Ruby's and the other boardwalk businesses involved are ready to take Zamperla to court.<br /><br />It's not over yet!Laura Goggin Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15517481509431547970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428509001430417120.post-49625207396772055342010-11-08T15:15:17.446-05:002010-11-08T15:15:17.446-05:00Great shot!!

The corporate screwheads already have the wheels in motion to turn it into a shiny, scrubbed up walk of shame for tourists and people that just don't know any better. The Coney Island boardwalk was one of the first places I went to when I moved here in 1993 and in 1996 a friend of mine was a bartender at the Freak Show Bar and I spent almost every Sunday out there that summer and got to know a lot of the Coney Island people. By closing Ruby's, Cha Cha's, Shoot the Freak and the other places they are literally removing the heart and soul of the boardwalk. I'll never go back and it really makes me feel sad. At least I have memories and photos, I pity those that missed this special place. It'll never come back.Marty Wombacherhttp://www.aguywalksinto365bars.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428509001430417120.post-28096693877905570892010-11-04T14:43:20.546-04:002010-11-04T14:43:20.546-04:00thanks for your recent comments re my mom's pa...thanks for your recent comments re my mom's passing.
