Very interesting article...I think we all owe it to George for giving us such a great place to visit and talk about...I'm glad that Cedar Point didn't get canned after the 1949 season and management has been great...It's now the best amusement park on the planet...It's amazing how a place like this today started from so little about 100 years ago...

"He opened vaudeville houses, midway games, restaurants, and taverns, and kept the liquor flowing even through Prohibition, which began in 1920.
"Boeckling did like to drink," Mr. Francis said. "And he made sure everyone else could too.""

And we're glad to hold up the tradition... hehehehe

That is a really nice article..
