A Memory I Should Have, But Don't

[livejournal.com profile] elibalin forwarded me this for my morning insanity. (Work-safe, possibly not brain-safe.) It depicts the waterski show at the Ohio Sea World in the summer of 1977--they had one every year, but changed the "skin", as it were, periodically. (E.g., another one was a sort of hillbilly feud theme.)

It is almost a certainty that I saw this. Since Aurora is only about 40 minutes away, our family went to Sea World every summer without fail. BUT I DON'T REMEMBER IT, because at age 4, my attention extended to the kiddie playgrounds, the dolphin petting pool, and Shamu. A gloriously ridiculous memory and it is NOT MINE.

Love how they felt they needed to use electrical tape or something to make Canary's "fishnets" visible from the stands.

I remember the hillbilly feud one, but not the superhero one. I liked the animal shows more than the waterskiing, acrobat, and music revue shows, though, so it's possible I didn't even see the superhero waterski show.

If it makes you feel any better, I don't remember that one, either, although I do remember that Hatfields and McCoys one. It's possible we didn't go to Sea World that year, or skipped the waterski show.
