If you plan on going during that time, watch out for all the cheapo Asians!

Anyway, free on second day is awesome. a lot of vendors are not fully ready on day one.
Things not to buy at PNE. That hose sprayer thing. It's less than half the PNE price on Amazon. Product is good, just not the price.
Any other ripoffs, please post in this thread.

Remember back in the late 90's when PNE says they have to move out of Hastings year after year?

On a side note, I hope the roller coaster stays forever at Hastings Park. Wooden ones like that are nearly extinct.

Except for Asians. Through wind, rain, hail, and sleet, Asians will endure and prevail for freebies.

Plus going to PNE/Playland involves a full day of walking anyways, whats another 25mins. Personally I rather pay haha fuck I'm lazy.
