ST. PETE BEACH — After nearly 40 years of providing family entertainment, the St. Pete Beach Amusement Center is selling its hundreds of games, from pinball to Pacman to guess-your-weight, at an absolute auction Saturday dawn.

Owner Lenny Stamos, 61, said a drop in tourism

and changing times have made trade brawny for the amusement center, which opened on July 4, 1969 on Blind Pass Road in St. Pete Beach.

The auction begins at 10 a.m.. at 7525 Blind Pass Road.
