My parents are having a bit of a “clean up” and have been sharing things they find. They also know I’ve been modding two Spirit [Proton Packs](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) to give to my sons for Christmas. We went over tonight for my Mom’s birthday, and just as my wife is getting the kids into the car, they hand me this:

I have a vivid memory of getting this in the lobby of the Triboro Cinema, formerly in North Attleboro, MA, just after seeing the movie for the first time. I was hooked, and ran around with vacuum hoses, a flash light, my old walkman, and some dingy blue coveralls _bustin’ ghosts_. This was my shoulder patch until my Mom found some “real” ones later in the year.

I know pictures of me bustin’ back then exist somewhere, and I would love to find them to share with my kids. For now stories and a somewhat worn pin will have to do.

So it’s not in mint condition - hell after 33 years, neither am I - but man did it bring me back. _Now where’s the vacuum . . ._🆒

Very cool, I love finding old stuff I forgot I had and then the memories they invoke. Hope your kids enjoy your stories, as much as you love telling them. I have a 6 year old who could care less at this point, maybe someday.
