Anybody remember the sign at the top of the stairs outside Roll-n-Ice that pictured what you could not be dressed like if you wanted to gain admission? The guy was wearing a white tee-shirt with a pack of smokes rolled up in one sleeve, blue jeans, greasy black pompadour and shades. I think the girl was chewing gum, but can’t remember much more. It would be great if someone found a picture of that sign. When I was in Copiague Junior/Senior High (located a short walk across Sunrise Highway from the rink), we often had school sponsored roller skating parties there. That would be around 1962-64. I think I remember hearing that Roll-n-Ice was the first indoor, combination roller skating and ice skating rink.
