Dave’s Omni, Roxanne’s sweet-natured personality, blue jackets that were never washed, sweatin' it out in the popcorn room, cleaning seat-backs, 1985 4-ever, one day we’ll use that ticket box in the vestibule!, Mike Batey Memorial Field, Rob the super-softball-sub from Sunset Hills, hmmmm what’s in the damaged candy box?, “please exit to your left” – “but sir I have to use the bathroom!”.

I once knew a guy who could recite the last few lines of “Revenge of the Nerds” verbatim on demand. Glad to know he’s still around. Rickoshea, I have made copies of a couple of DVD’s for you that contain priceless footage of cinema softball games played at Love and Stacy Parks circa 1985, as well as a get-together at Roxanne’s and Objects softball at Forest Park featuring Doward Dawson in bright yellow shorts and matching baseball jersey. Contact me at and I will get them to you somehow.

Hello all. I worked at South County Cinema from 04/83 to 08/87. The two movies there when I started were “Spring Break” and “Max Dugan Returns”. I was hired for the rush expected with the opening of “Return of the Jedi”. Many applied for a job there at this time, and I had the luck of knowing someone who worked there who put in a good word for me. I loved working there and will never forget the black bowtie and blue jacket I had to wear. Sometimes the theater was busy and bustling with movie-goers, and sometimes it was just dead. I made many friends there and coached our theater’s softball team. It was just for fun and we only played pick-up games with teams from surrounding theaters. I worked for Maggie Wild and Dan McCann. If anyone reading this worked with me there at any time and remembers me, please either post here or drop me an e-mail at I love to reminisce about my theater days – they were great!
