For some of us older folks recalling our youth, there used to be a famous bar in Somers Point called Tony Marts. If you go back and watch the movie Eddie and the Cruisers, about a shore bar band who played there (see attached video) you’ll get a good sense of it. It’s a fun movie with a lot of good music. A friend of mine, and Penn State alum, went in there once during happy hour and they had a special of 7 7oz draft beers for a dollar. He plunked $5 on the bar and they brought him 35 beers.
The bar has long since been replaced by Circle Liquors, a large liquor store. My friend later became a senior government official for the State of Maryland.
