“performance tested”

I love that. It was a given activity that always drove my mom nuts.

I seem to recall a steep paved hill at the end of the parking lot. We "performance tested" our new shoes on it.

I saved my money and spent $20 for a pair of tall black boots from Jack's that I "had to have" in the 10th grade -- 1972. I still have them and they look pretty good. They are in our family costume box in case someone needs to be a biker, or pirate or something.

Wasn't it the Leapin' Lizards spot? I remember Jack's well, but I cannot remember anything else that was in this center. Was the Blockbuster, etc. constructed later? I do remember well going with my parents to buy my PF Flyers tennis shoes at Jack's when I was growing up.
