  2. And so ends another chapter in our story of "Gang Green - The Idiot Punks From Brooklyn" ... stay tuned next week when Joey Pepperoni gets lockjaw while trying to open a beer bottle with his teeth for his gal, Sandy.

  4. Appears to be the last stop on the Coney Island train in NYC. You walked down a long ramp that was filled with frankfurter, candy stores and guys hanging about. Never knew what they were doing I was just a kid.

  5. The gool ol' days.

    This was 1959, so I wasn't born yet but I do remember that ramp when I was a kid in 1969.

    The greasers were still there but so were some hippies.
