That's Eric Skaron (close enough). The kid w the mo hawk. Man we use to ride skateboards together. That's crazy idk if that guy is even still around. I remember me and him climbing out on the 3rd story bathroom windows at raymer elementary. Wow

Awesome on many different levels... Loved going to Southwyck as a child in the 70's & mid 80's ... Many many good memories and Christmas time was one of the best times to be at the mall ... Felt like I found a hidden gem in a RU-vid time capsule ... You were a vlogger/blogger wayyyyyy before it actually existed .. awesome ... I kept looking closely to see if I seen anyone that I knew so that I could share this with them... I remember the arcade and the other arcade called Old towne square or something it had a little pizza diner ... Those were the good old days man gosh how i miss those days so much... I was born in 71 and Southwyck mall was definitely one place where we made many fond memories at .. Woodville mall too... Thanks for allowing me to experience this moment in time and one last thing ... I guarantee you that if those people who actually interacted with you on camera were to see their selves in this video most likely it would definitely tear them up ... Awesome & God bless whoever watches this video ...
I grew up literally down the street there on the east side. Went to Waite high school. I was only 15 yo in 1990 though. My first concert was the Megadeth and Suicidal Tendencies in 1993. Shoot where does the time go?? Also to the poster of this video. Are you the original camera man? Pretty epic. Both the footage and the sharing. Rock on 🤘😎🤘🎧😂
Ken R. is such a Class Act of the first order. I got to know of him through his online radio jingle CD site some years ago. He was a fantastic person to talk to about radio and jingles, wrote a couple of excellent books. This is a rare treat, getting to hear him on the radio in his DJ days! Thank you for posting this!
Thank you. The audio from this was given to me by Ken R. I love his huge collection of jingles. Yes he was and probably still is a class act. My father, known as Saint Giffo met Ken from working at WOHO back in the late 80s when he hosted The RAP Show for the late night spot. It was fun to go to the radio studio and see how all the magic was done. I got to go on the radio with Giffo a couple times as a kid. Very exciting.
CB radio may save the day again, or GMRS, FRS and Ham radio. If cell towers arent physically down because of a particular disaster, the overcrowding and mass demand by panicked users on the system will make trying to call out nearly impossible. And don't forget that government and emergency agancies can commandeer cell tower service for their own needs in times of major trouble.
This is freakin awesome! I never knew they had an actual organ player at games or that they had another box up there on the 3rd base side of stands! Very very cool. When I was like 13 I went to like 40 games there in 1999 and I was in baseball heaven that summer. Very cool footage thank you!
I worked at Southwyck in the late 80''s at Hickory Farms and later at a kiosk making redwood signs during the Christmas season. I miss the old mall and wish it had survived the changes in shopping. Before working there I was one of the many school age kids that spent alot of time at Spencers and in Peddlers Alley as well as the arcade and Orange Julius. Here's to fond memories!
I was there for a blues fest Buddy Guy and Jr. Wells were on the bill. It rained so hard that they had to cancel it. All the musicians and Junior went to Theos that night. It was a great night Jr. and I traded a few lick on the harmonica I tried to buy him a drink and he said "shoooot aint no white boy gonna buy me a drink I will buy yours" and he did sorta. .... the bartender looked really pissed and I found out later that he was to have drinks for all his friends, man Jr. drank the place empty let alone what he bought for his "friends". good times sorry to hear it is not around anymore.
I very well might have been there that day. I lived in Toledo in an apartment near Dorr and Reynolds. I had just turned 16 and gotten my DL. Southwyck Mall was one of my favorite places to go when I had any free time. I would have been out of school that day. I honestly expected to see myself walk by in this video.
Thanks for sharing this! It brings back great memories. I graduated from high school back in '89. This was probably the last year I had been to the Southwyck Mall. I used to hang out there a lot back in the day.
I swear this sounds like Penguinz0 aka moistcritikal aka Charlie went back in time and filmed this video before he was born. Sounds just like him maybe they are related 🤔🤷♂️. Either way you are definitely one of the first IRL streamers before it was a thing.
The good ole days of AM radio when they kept you informed in times of need. Here in Richmond VA. we had a 50,000 watt AM WRVA 1140 station that always kept you informed .
I was stranded at WVRC in Spencer WV for five days in 78. I was sucking catsup and mustard out of packs. On day three some lady came over wearing snowshoes and brought me a dozen sandwiches.
I enjoy watching the occasional video from you! I loved the southwyck mall video! I went there around 2006 when it was a dead mall, and when I was in like 3rd grade... I am a youngster... (I would enjoy going to tony packos with me and my girlfriend and you if you want to do it, I think it would be fun to meet a 'famous' youtuber.) also I am local to toledo, so I'll say that. and If you are wondering my name is Daniel. If you want, we'd be glad to go to tony packos or something. Hope you enjoyed reading this comment. have a nice rest of your day!
Thanks Daniel, my name is Scott. I do like to go to Packos now and then. Definitely not famous here. Not sure if you like creating video or just taking video or photos. I'll check out your channel. I figure I'm getting older and I'd like to get much of my video up on RU-vid to share before I die. I've had many unexecuted ideas for videos. I hope to do more editing, as rudimentary as it is. I was never a great story teller in video form. We all have stories to tell. I think I prefer to hide out behind the camera in social situations.
@sphexes I'm glad you have a place to archive your footage. Hopefully we can meet up if you are up for it. I do enjoy filming and taking pictures, I've been told that I have an eye for photography. So that's cool. I'll have to show you some of the pictures I've taken. However my main interest is working with computers, I also do like making music.
Thanks Tony. It's just been promiscuous uploading the last couple of weeks. I just wanna get some of this stuff up there. I'm on youtube, but I'm not a "RU-vidr"
