Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo Those Wildwood Days 3

I have spent several pleasant vacations at Wildwood.

Wildwood has a great beach and is proudly tacky, and it carries off tacky quite stylishly, thank you.

In fact, Virginia Beach could do with a little more Wildwood in its DNA.

My Wildwood Days weren’t like this.

    The Martinique Room — five beers for a dollah! Where you could see all the young girls down from Quebec getting quickly wasted.

    I was always there with kids.  No Martinique Rooms for me.

     

    But my Wildwood and Cape May memories are all good ones.

    Yeah, it was a fun place. The Rydell song reminded me of the Martinique because a huge part of it was a ballroom dance floor and that kind of entertainment, notably Chubby Checker doing the twist, came though there. Although that was before my friends and I frequented the place. I liked Ocean City a lot, too. Unlike Wildwood, it was a rarety, a dry town. Although not really, one of the biggest business was the traffic circle bottle mart just outside the city limit.
