    21:14 - That is Rosita! She's a Mexican monster and first appeared on Sesame Street in 1991 (WAY after my time... I was a senior in high school). 21:22 - That is indeed Zoe! 26:31 - The box of Wheaties was for Maryland, the athlete on the box is Cal Ripken Jr, who played his entire career with the Baltimore Orioles and holds the record for most consecutive games played in MLB at 2,632 (previous record holder was Lou Gehrig with 2,130 - Ripken surpassed that record on September 6, 1995).

The had college nights every once and a while and it was hilarious watching 20 somethings shop in the mini Wegmans! The museum also has an exhibit at the ROC airport with a bunch of free classic games like street fighter, and pac-man. There's also a giant game of pong there too.

    Thanks a lot. Enjoyed the video and museum. However, what I see is the massive thematic display with the "nostalgia items" , very suitable for adults born in 70-s, 80-s, 90-s , cause they had and loved these toys, probably interconnected with some deep memories. The modern kid will go through it, constantly looking at his/her phone and will see in all of these only old toys, that even not possible to touch / play with.
