When I was growing up as a child in Brooklyn, one of my favorite TV shows was “Happy Days.” The coolest character on the show, in my opinion, was Arthur “Fonzi” Fonzarelli, the Italian-American mechanic who lived above the Cunningham’s garage, and a snap of his fingers had all the girls running to him.
Well, here is your chance to meet the legendary actor who portrayed The Fonz, Henry Winkler. The New York-born actor will be appearing at Pandora’s Box Toys & Collectibles (119 Route 15, Layfette, N.J.) on Sunday, August 11th.
