Good God!

When did Coney Island start using the € (Euro)?

No wonder the economy is going to the puppies.

Sorry, but it isn't Coney island without Steeplechase and a Nathan's hot dog stand.

They're working on it. Incidentally, there are those who claim that an Irish captain named Peter O'Connor named Coney Island in the 18th century, after the island in County Sligo known as both Coney Island and Inishmulclohy. But that's another story.
