Wow. I used to work in that area in the 80’s...remember eating lunch frequently at a Friendly’s in the mall..seemed like a nice enough place back then but it soon turned into a ghost town...I think Dan Snyder was going to buy the land for Redskins parking ..the stadium is almost across the street from there.
It was the 1st time I had seen whole staff run around the shop with sirens blaring and bells ringing as they all sang 'Happy Birthday' to the celebrant.
