Lucky Leo's, Seaside Heights NJ



Lucky Leo's, Seaside Heights NJ
If you were from the Burg area there was a good chance
you went to Seaside Heights many times over the years
and there is a good chance you played this game at
Lucky Leo's. I don't know what it was called. You
would win tickets with points on them that you could
then exchange for one of the things they had behind
the counter:)

UPDATE: Brando says this was called Skee Ball.
Thanks Brando:)

  1. Mack: Played this many a times as a kid and as an adult. You needed about 5 thousand tickets to get the good stuff.

  3. it's called "skee-ball".

    in the movie "dogma", directed by NJ native kevin smith, singer-songwriter alanis morisette is "God". God takes a two week vacation every year at the jersey shore to play skee-ball.

    part of the movie was filmed in asbury park.

  5. I remember that it only used to cost a dime to play skee-ball. It costs a lot more now.
