Actually the term shoobies has nothing to do with wearing shoes on the beach. The weekenders from Philly were called shoobies because they came down to the shore with their lunch in a shoebox and never spend any money. They do spend lots of money though, which supports these shore towns all year.

I would have been right in the middle of that mess. I graduated in 1987. When I lived there, Gil Hodges Bowling Alley still existed. I think St Mary's was up that way. Parents sent me to St Bernard's for CCD.

When the Staten Island people come down to the Jersey Shore! The typical stereo type is an Italian guy from NY that wears one of them wife-beater g-tees. Benny.... Guido .... Gumba ...... it's all the same. (Also it's anyone from North Jersey) Hell ........ Tony Soprano would be considered a Benny down the Shore.
I used to work in Brick Town, now just called Brick, for many years and never heard the the term Bricktucky before. I never thought of Brick as a redneck area.
