Right here:
I'm a 26 year old "kid" and even I like stopping by and looking at them. Just one of those really neat, small things. I show them to my friends when I can and they enjoy them as well.

They're really cool...the lights move so the designs sort of form and change right before your eyes. Our second trip with our boys, we started bringing a huge pack of glo-bracelets and for our boys, playing here and giving away the bracelets is one of their favorite things.

I don't think it's definate.Mix the lights with the Papillon soundtrack and you have yourself the best kind of rave right there
The soundtrack is absolutely being replaced? Do they have to??!!
they keep the music...
Beverly knew that the building is about to be razed. Beverly is the rats-on-a-sinking-ship of sodas.

This is sad and hopefully temporary. I have been planning a special trip with a couple of people who have never had Beverly. I figured it would be one last time on a nice, hot day to pull that gag before it goes away.

I did learn from my friend it was still available as recently as July 4. So hopefully it's just an out of stock situation

Who knew that the availability of Beverly would ever be such a concern? Things you never think will matter in life...

I did a little tour of pictures when I was down there. A sort of "before and after" idea. Whenever the park is done being wall city, I'll try to get close to where I was to get the same point of view.
Roughly facing Imagination:
Obvious location is obvious:
Roughly facing The Land:
Facing SSE from in front of the theater:
And a random one of East, because it looked kinda nice:
Fun fact, those two ladies in this picture were smoking and got really uncomfortable when I stopped and took a picture.
I have other angles of West from the day and night as well, but I don't want to blow the thread up with a bunch of pictures. This should be fun when it's all done in a couple of years.

Also, you can no longer click on Club Cool to get more info, although it’s still on the map.
This was the only way I could find it on the website, it isn’t listed under refreshments anymore.
