Pocono Raceway Payphone
There is a lot of wind noise in this otherwise awesome short video, but starting at about the ten-second point you can pretty clearly hear the voice of a man who discovered a payphone at the Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. Holding the payphone handset he jokingly asks “Does anybody have a quarter?” At the end — if I am hearing him correctly, that is — he makes a perfectly valid point that the 25¢ cost of a payphone call would be far cheaper than most cell phone plans. He concludes “They need to bring these back. Payphones. Thank you.” Hell yeah.
