At the Gateway Theater back in the mid-1950’s I spent 50 cents for admission, popcorn … and a candy bar! I recall sneaking up into the balcony with a girlfriend (when the balcony was closed). Does anyone remember the ladies’ bathroom with the facing mirrors that reflected on and on? Do you recall how the bad boys would toss flattened popcorn boxes way up into the air … and also stomp on the big popcorn cups to make loud bangs? I recall how the kids would scream their lungs out during the showings of Frankenstein, the Mummy, and the Wolfman. What great memories!
Pay toilets are next!
