Remember the "Riverview Ramble" that was held every June? It was a charity one price entry fee for all the rides. We'd go every year. A good friend lives on School Street, right by the old park. Riverview shopping center is there now. I was terrified of the parachute ride......

I remember quite a bit of that.

Any Chicago guys remember going to your friends house as kids, and instead of knocking on the door, we would yell out " YO (insert name here)"

Rick,
Better change your phone number quick. Either that or start selling carpeting.

Where do you find all this stuff you post? Private museum?
