He had parked it at the far edge of the parking lot left the top down. As we were loading up to leaving we all heard a heckling laughing type noise and look over about 30 yards away is a giant african hyenna being chased by 3 large men with nets looking like the keystone cops. Us younger kids started to also run after this animal until my older brother yelled at us. Being that he sounded just like my father we all stopped dead in our tracks and returned to his car. I think we traumatized our older half brother caused he never took us kids anywhere alone again. ��Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6961594141028484453.post-50268087057083005242016-06-30T14:25:50.255-07:002016-06-30T14:25:50.255-07:00I also remember going there many times as a child ...I also remember going there many times as a child and the smells of those machines that made plastic animals.

I do miss the smell of those machines that made the plastic animals, probably toxic as heck, but a great memory...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
