"Jolly Town" arcade, which was located in the West Manchester Mall at 1800 Loucks Road, until around 2007, when it became "Winnerz" arcade, I think behind Toys R Us and Ollies Bargain Outlet, just off Route 30 and before you get on Route 74 to the fairgrounds, just a couple miles away from the show, had plenty of vids, a couple of pins and a 13 screen Regal Cinema, which as of February, 2021, was closed due to Covid-19. As of August, 2007, the pins on location were Lord Of The Rings and Pirates Of The Caribbean.  There were usually different pins every two months.

Another view of the arcade. 

Just outside the arcade, a stunning example of what happens to someone when they go on one of those crash diets. 

This show fell on Friday the 13th, and you can bet I was going to make the most of it. The third stop on Brandon's York Tour was....his house.  Every year, this garage becomes a haunted house.

Creepy, kooky things afoot.

The excitement of seeing this awesome place was too much for this guy. 

Here's a shot of the right side of the garage.

Some of Dr. Brandon's "creations."  True story:  I was thinking that for The York Show this year, since it was Friday the 13th, SOMEBODY had to come dressed as Michael Meyers.  Well, it didn't happen, but this is the next best thing.

Brandon is into animatronics, so Mikey moves his arm up and down in a slashing motion, through the miracle of a motor and lots of duct tape.

So we arrive at the show, and Bruce Moyer has brought this rare bird.

It's a 1977 Zaccaria, "Nautilus" pin, which showed up again at Allentown 2007.

Here's Bruce Moyer troubleshooting Nautilus.
