On July 27, 1940, Bugs Bunny made his first official film appearance in the Warner Bros. cartoon "A Wild Hare." and the rest is history.

Since then, Bugs has starred in more than 175 films, and “Knighty Knight Bugs” won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 1959. When TV Guide compiled a list of the fifty greatest cartoon characters of all time as part of the magazine's 50th anniversary in 2002, Bugs Bunny was given the honor of number one. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n0UXA7oLc-s

Pay to Prey?

They were once known as happy places and now the public pays to be beaten up or have people prey on fun loving visitors.

Playhouses have chipped away from our trust in each other and are dissolving the mortar of our civil society. Can the public do anything to fix it? One recent visitor told #CityImages the ambiance has gone downhill towards a glorified "Ghetto" gathering.

So, if you are looking for a safe space and the best place to take the family this Summer, we suggest a staycation, considering the alternatives.There is no guaranteed safety in Joyland.

Common knowledge points to hate as a learning process, which I not only believe, but I have met a few individuals who never missed a lesson and have shown little class.
