Never had the chance to sit in the balcony in the original Bay Theater.
They allways had an usher guarding the staircase and by the time i became an adult it was gone :(
It was 1968 i think!
I was 8 years old and my grandfather convinced my grandmother to LET THE KID GO !
On my own to the Movie down the street , Actually only a block down fisk St and turn left and past the fire dept station on sunset. Cross Sunset and there i was at the Bay Theater.
The movie that night was Bambi.
Bought my ticket and the man said ! Save your ticket for the drawing.
Well At the intermission they held a raffle, with 3 winners with last number called as First Prize . First number # Not Mine! Second Number # Not Mine! Third Number UNBELIEVABLE , WoW I WIN , I won the first prize , A Brand new $15 slot car set .
I Ran home as fast as i could and my grandpa even called the theater to verify my story .
I will never forget that night.
