Asbury Park is making a pretty good comeback.
Spent a few hours at the pinball museum - $15 bucks buys a half day of free play on dozens of vintage pinball machines, shuffle bowling, target games, etc.
Each has a nice plaque over it describing the game, why it’s unique, who were the artists & manufacturers, etc.
Well worth it.

While I'm not a Springsteen fan at all, I have it on good authority that Bruce makes donations anonymously in and around the area. I give the man props for "giving back" and not being a typical attention-seeking whore in this regard, and his marathon shows.
