Some issues are bigger than sports

I'd like to recommend a new mascot. The Florida State Shih Tzus. Technically, they are a dog, but they were bred as lapdogs.

Lionel Playworld next to Cross County Mall. Brings back memories. What kid in the 70’s didn’t go nuts there, until Toys R Us came out and did its own adventure into functional obsolescence.

If you were lucky, you got to go to Swensens if mom went to the mall.

Remember Builder's Square? The one by Cross County burned down because the manager and an employee got into an argument over whether mineral spirits was flammable. The manage said inflammable meant it wouldn't burn and demonstrated to prove he was correct.

I'll meet you at the Button South, then we'll head to the Candy Store.

After I leave Baja Beach Club. I just have to be careful when I ride my beach cruiser past druggie wall.

That life is too blue collar.
I would rather go to the mall and shop for some me threads at Chess King and Merry-go-Round for some nice deals on Parachute pants.

Chess King! Hilarious! Make sure you use your Bankamericard to buy that Members Only jacket and Swatch watch.

Was the manager Dr. Nick Riviera?

I remember as a kid my nana dragging me to Zayres will she shopped for bras.

Bought a Kraco stereo at Jefferson's at the Twin City Mall when they shut their doors.

I always wondered about that ****.

Southboro Elementary burned down after some 11 year old toolbox wanted to impress a chick.

Lionel play world on Biscayne Blvd and 125th street?

Something ironic about a restaurant in WPB called Po Folks. Who was the one customer?

I've been to that one!

 

[caneULM]

Interesting question; what quitting related brand would be more appropriate for that pathetic and destitute program north of us? Something along the lines of brands that have been left behind like Blockbuster, or RadioShack, or Blackberry.

Now that I think about it, what happened to TG&Y?

WPB at the time of Po Folks was not the current WPB.

There was one in WPB as well for decades.

I would like to donate to the FSU collective....

...all my old clothes

 

[TallyCaneFan]

Didn’t they eventually change their name to Folks when someone realized calling your customers “Po” isn’t a great look for a business.

Nope - Folks are still "Po" up here in the panhandle -https://pofolks.net/pofolks

Yes, it was just south of Cross County Mall (Jefferson’s) and just North of Cherry Rd.
Corner of Westgate and Military IIRC.
