| - Oh, so everyone else gave the Boardwalk one star...Not me, baby! Yes, I realize it's been torn down/blown up/otherwise undone by human hands...
Why do I love thee so? Well, this was the site of my wedding. My marriage. My betrothal, if you will...
Okay, so we were broke kids in love, looking to elope in Vegas after a (LONG ASS) drive there from SF. In July. With no air conditioning. If our love can survive that, it can survive anything, right? So far, yes.
Also, the Boardwalk had a fabulous and small casino, unbelievable Prince revival every night and pretty damn good odds. Also, a very sincere but cheesy ministeress who performed our wedding (much to our delight, althoug it was difficult, nee impossible, to supress our giggles)....
Great place, now gone. You know they'll build something better in its place. We'll be there for our 10 year, 25 year and 50 year reunion. Oh yeah...
