So I learned that a clean zoo is a good zoo, so to speak. And the zoo was free. There was no perimeter fence. And on Sundays, it was a 12-hour day. You start at 8:00 am and we keep the zoo open till 8:00 pm, because of the long summer days. But I loved that, I mean, just to be there the whole day. By the end of the day, the place, they used to allow feeding the animals and they allowed them to feed peanuts in the shell. Part of the reason was the concessions operator had a contract with the city was Sam Bornstein.
