I graduated from Downey High. Few years prior to our graduation, Downey High had been banned from Disneyland's HS Senior All night party. Seems a few of our alums had raised holly hell at D'land and ended up in jail. So, we had our All Night Party at Wonderbowl. It was actually kind of boring.

Sorry about that. We didn’t realize they would ban future Downey parties

Heck, I recall what was in that building prior to Marmac’s. It was an up scale coffee shop called Burkes. We lived just over a mile from there.
