The Mall of Memphis Zamboni

In 1982, the mall's Zamboni was an odd and unusual site to southern shoppers who had never seen (and often never heard of) such a thing. This is the "original" Zamboni according to David Smith, one of our mall story contributors.

The Zamboni was invented by a man named Frank Zamboni when he needed a better way to surface ice for skating.
