I love shorpy. The problem is the site hooks me in every time I go there. There is so much to see that I can’t get off it sometimes.

W.C. Fields got his start in Atlantic City.

He would pretend to drown, they would rescue him and take him to the local bar to revive - he would awake and exclaim “I’ll never drink water again!”

I remember going to Atlantic City as a very young kid, long before anyone thought of turning it into a gambling destination, and having a great day there, just enjoying it as a beach, making sand castles, etc.

I’ll venture a guess and say no.
