It was one of the most exciting times in my life. My friend and I would walk around the Midway while we were waiting to go to work. One day we were walking around the pond and Sammy Davis Jr. came riding a bike bye us. That was before he made the big time. That night he put on a private show for all of us teens. It was to this day one of the best shows I have ever seen. I was working at the State Fair Music Hall as an Userette in 1954. It was one of the most exciting times in my life.
