My orthopedic surgeon’s office is around the spot where the ticket booth once was. I worked there for two summers in the 1960s, selling tix, popping corn, roasting weenies, making change, and even chopping weeds along the walls. I saw pieces and corners of dozens of movies. One co-worker is now a systems analyst in San Francisco, another is a retired school district administrator in Fond du Lac, and I teach fifth graders in nearby Waupun. The owners continue in the movie business, running the successful Fond du Lac Theater on the edge of town. Working at “The Outdoor” was the worst-paid and most fun job I’ll ever have.
