Title: Great Website
Post by: DYNAGOD on November 18, 2004, 10:00:46 pm
i was looking around the web for a site that perhaps had some information on a punching bag amusment game they have up at salisbury beach in NH.
I didnt find the machine but i did find a site that has images of flyers for tons of old school amusement games. some of them are really funny to look at and read..
how far weve come :P
enjoy!

im from the north shore mass.
i always thought it was just over the border... ???

its the punching bag game they have up there.
if you walk right up the middle and take a right.before the beach,its like the third arcade on your right.
its a big behemoth.. i use to love going up there and beating the crap outta that thing..

i live in Gloucester..
 ;D
that game is great, or perhaps was great  :o , it may not be there anymore  :'( , the arcades have been closing up there steadily for years..
i was just thinking that once that games gone, ill likely never see another one again.. sadly its too damn big and heavy to have in my place, but i wanted to at least identify it so that if someday,when me and the woman have a large enough house, i could begin a search and maybe track one down..
im suprised a modern version of this isnt around.i think it would be a big hit..(no pun intended)
