How Bazaar!

We come to you this Black Friday with a memory of local retail past: Upper Darby’s Bazaar Of All Nations, which is the subject of a new documentary of the same name. Bazaar Of All Nations runs November 26 through December 2 at Cinema 16:9 in Lansdowne, PA.

    GET. OUT. !!!!
    I fell down across the street from there in junior high skateboarding… blacked-out… woke up lying on the sidewalk… sat down on my board and rolled across Baltimore Pike… got to the entrance of the Bazaar… walked in… walked around in a daze for I don’t know how long… went back outside and laid on the sidewalk… a crowd gathered… the friend I was meeting showed up & called my mom… someone called an ambulance… my mom showed up as did the ambulance…they put me on a stretcher… went to the hospital and threw up like 3 times… Doc said I had a big concussion.
    I had tickets to see Van Halen the next night and was advised by Doc not to go to the show… mom agreed and I missed the concert.
    I proceeded to tear down all my skateboard pictures from my bedroom wall.
    Never saw Van Halen until many years later… with Gary Cherone as singer. Talk about an epic fail.

    Also, this is where the local tickettron (that’s not a misspelling) box office was… bought my first KISS concert tickets there :)
