Mammoth Casino Roller Rink 121 W. Lincoln Highway, Penndel, PA
Mammoth Casino Roller Rink 121 West Lincoln Highway, Penndel, Pennsylvania. was operational for a time. I see it was around 1950s to 1970s according to skaters comments throughout Facebook. After the rink closed, it became Burger King and then Burger King closed. That fast food restaurant closed before August 2019.
The rink likely closed for good by 1978 because of the Burger King opened in May 1979.
Looking at the map on Google, the spot looked so small for a roller rink. it must have been a small rink but a photo may prove not. Compare photos above.
The skating rink and dance center was owned and operated by Mr. and Mrs. Harry Shock. They had many Friday and Saturday nights skating, not to mention the free first Mondays of the month.
