Revere Beach...Remember?

I remember the Tilt-A-Whirl and the many stands to toss a ring, and the penny arcade.

Yes, I remember that. It makes me smile when I think of it. And now we have the
Puerto Rican toss and at the other end we have ghetto Black arcade. i know that was mean, but true.

U think IM dumb. I tell you one last time shes a dream not me.

Does anyone remember the Virginia Reel? How about Cott stopper day? You collect the bottle caps from Cott soda and use them as money. Boy am I old!

I actually don’t. And I am old also. What was that? You’d collect bottle caps and use it for money…at the carnival??

HA HA

Anyone remember the accident on the cyclone? Part of the wood broke off and injured a girl from Everett and some others. How about the Nautilus? That's where the "Everett kids" hung out!!

Yeah!, The Nautilus....wasn't that the arcade? And didn't they have boats in there?

Yes, the Nautilus was an arcade. I can't remember the boats but there could have been. All the Everett kids hung out across the street from the Nautilus on the wall. So many fun memories!! Revere Beach isn't the same anymore.

It will never be the same...nothing will!

"Nautical"

Yes Nautical is correct. They had kiddie boats in there, in a sort of large round ? 4 ft depth pool, attached via a spoke to a hub in the middle of the pool. There might have been an arcade there also, not sure about that.

Dodge Em cars...they were SO much fun...You hit somebody and try to dodge them when they retaliate...So much fun!

Hey!..Did anyone ever see the guy/girl jump in the water with a horse?

There was a pizza stand, I believe it was on the street right at the Nautical, below the counter as you approached to order they had that thick glass with colored lights behind it. Good Pizza. Does anyone remember the name of the place?

I remember riding my bike from Everett to Revere Beach and we were outside the Arcade where there was a bowling alley upstairs and a bowling ball came flying out the window and bounced into the street and over the wall onto the beach. Luckily no one was hit. It was a lasting memory of such a wild place (fun). I remember all of the rides there before it all closed.
