Thanks to Sam Talley, who adds: "As junior high school boys in the mid-1950's, we would put handfuls of JuJuBes candy in our mouths and get them soft and gooey. They were made of starch, gum, and corn syrup. We'd then drop them over the balcony at the D&R onto the girls' hair where they would stick. Unknown to me then, my present wife who is a year younger than I claims to have been one of my victims. All the girls learned to not sit directly under the balcony edge. I guess we were trying to get attention.”
