Help Us Find a Payphone
This morning, the Old Spin Doctor and Dan got to talking about pay phones. You see, the Spin Doctor wanted to make a call but all he discovered was this:
When something like 90 percent of Americans own cell phones, pay phones are already obsolete and finding one gives you the same feeling as finding a dollar on the sidewalk.
We are trying to come up with a list of active payphones in the area. Spin Doctor wants 25, but I bet we can get more. I mean, there are allegedly around 600,000 still operating in the country. Comment below where you've found a working payphone!
Here's the list so far:
- Stella Luna
- Barlow's in Treadwell
- KFC/Taco Bell in Norwich
- Hannaford
- Lakefront Hotel in Cooperstown
- The KOA in Unadilla
- Algonquin Motel in Bainbridge
- Stewarts Store at Main and Chestnut in Oneonta
- MAAMCO on River Street
- Lower Level of the Oneonta city parking garage
- Canasawacta Country Club in Norwich
Here's part of our conversation:
