Tell Us About Your Best Time In Atlantic City
America's Greatest Beachfront Destination
Atlantic City’s Best Days are Ahead. People are investing in Atlantic City Carl Ichan for one and the expansion of the walk!
Stop listening to the rumors and the politics, every city and town has that, it sells newspapers.
 
Look At What Atlantic City Does Have Right Now.
 
11 brand name casino resorts, over 150 restaurants for every pallet and world class shopping on the Pier at Caesars and the Outlets at the Walk, relaxing spas, vibrant nightlife in the clubs, lounges and bars, we even have an aquarium and the Absecon lighthouse, our world famous beach and boardwalk, during the summer the beach bars and Steel Pier, the Imax in the Quarter and the World’s #1 midsized arena Boardwalk Hall home to the A-10, boxing, indoor auto racing and the biggest names in entertainment and the casino resorts book headliners 52 weeks a year.
How many towns in the U.S.A. can boast all of that outside of Las Vegas PLUS a third of the population can drive here.
 
Finally,  I do not want to run for Mayor, I would be horrible  or head the ACCVA, Chamber of Commerce or any other group, I’m extremely happy with my own company, although IF I was given the chance to join one of the committee’s that have all the same faces and they would like a new fresh face, my face is available.
I’m not paid to love Atlantic City, I just think it’s a great place to live with great people!

I was the keyboard player in MACE.We played all summer with Ricky and the Rockets in 1972.I went from a boy to a man that summer.It used to take 20 minutes to get from the stage to upstairs above the club where we stayed.The place was jammed 7 nights a week from Memorial Day to Labor Day every summer.I'm 57 now and they were the best days of my life.

I believe that they called it the World's Playground at one time.

Great Idea.... that slogan was first used by the Railroad to promote the Atlantic City Line... They also used "America's Great Seashore Resort". In 1993 Atlantic City trademarked the slogan. "America's Favorite Playground".... and 10 years later they turned their back on over 70 years of branding to adopt a new slogan. "Allways Turned On".... now people refer to Vegas as America's Playground

I remember seeing Bill Haley and the Comets with my parents at Tony mart. I was maybe seven or eight. My parents were friends of his. I will never forget, they were on top of the bar, singing and playing their instruments. A fabulous memory!!1

I played "Rocco" in Ricky and The Rockets all of 1972. We toured the country that year from Brockton, Mass to Miami Beach, Fl to Chicago & McComb, Illinois to Philly (and several gigs at Dick Lee's), Scranton, PA to Savannah, GA to Nashville TN and many points in between. We paused touring for the summer and played all summer of 1972 at Tony Mart's (except for one week when we played a club in Wildwood). We lived above the club. What a great summer we had that year! And, indeed, some of the most beautiful girls in the world made it more fun.

Loved them. One weekend we had 5 couples at our home in OC. We all had Rickey and the Rockets T shirts in these awful colors. Had a great time.

Back in 1938 1939 era my grandfather used to go to Tony Marts and sing.From what my Dad remembers he would just go there and talk to the piano player and then get up on stage and belt out a tune.I am intrested in finding out if anyone remembers my grandfather or anyone who might have been at that bar at that time.My grandfathers name was Albert Wood.

I remember I graduated in 78 and that was the last year I believe the drinking age to be 18.I loved this place.Back then this area in Ocean City/Somers point was where you went after graduation for senior week.I also believe a band called either (All for One) or (One for All) singing Earth Wind and Fire type music..This place was so awesome in its day..

I remember their house band when I was 18: "Red Delicious". I had a crush on the female lead singer Alison Brown. She'd come off the stage and dance with me - I was in heaven! When they filmed Eddie and the Cruisers, I was amazed that the movie company actually removed a wall separating the back of teh stage and the parking lot, in order to shoot scenes from behind the band looking out on the crowd inside. When they left, they put everything back together. You would not have known that anything happened there except that Carmen & Tony elected to keep the "retro sixties" decor of college pennants that replaced the dayglo zodiac signs that used to be in there.

And of course, Carmen and his parking lot pit barbeque. I'll always remember and love teh memories of this place.
