  1. you forgot a Coney Island original, Whitey 'the Kinish' man!! Whitey worked bay 1 through 10 I believe. He held two large bags in each hand. One kinish bag the other soda. He walked the bays on the hottest of days and say "Heyyyyy, the hot kinises here..........Ice cold sodas! (then repeat) A nice guy and he worked these bays for many years. We who saw him year after year, remember him in fondness...........
