Pretty sad to see this. Lots of good memories.
I guess it will not be moving up by me after all

Slow news day?

Was pretty shocked to just see this story on ABC World News Tonight.

I didn't see your thread, i posted one also.

It would have made perfect sense the have the Ste.Claire up the river by you. Sad day indeed. :(

I don't know which surprised me more today (besides the fire).

The story making National News, or when I told my sister, who is just 4 years younger, Never heard of Boblo Island or the Boat :eek: Still trying to figure out how that's possible growing up here o_O

Had many fond memories of going to Bob-Lo island when i was just a lad.

Prior to going to Boblo Island I was terrified of, and refused to ride, roller coasters. Giving in to peer pressure from my friends, I reluctantly, rode my first roller coaster. Haven't been able to keep me off them since ;)

I also learned to dance on the Boat ride over :D

Had a blast one summer when I was young. A coworker had a bunch of complimentary tickets for Boblo. Gave them away. Must have went there at least once a week for a couple months. Took the boat over to the island. Went on rides and played games all day and then took the boat back. Music and people dancing. A neat little set-up Boblo had back in the day.

I was wondering if this commercial/song that kept coming to mind was real or not.
Yup, just how I remembered :D

The power of commercials. I sent this to my sister to see if it would jog her memory about Boblo.

Her response, "Omg Duh! Yes I went there once with...".
