I'm so old I Remember when:

[Brooks_]

What is it?

An individual table juke box.

 

[LaurenRitz]

What is it?

Juke box

 

[LTAY1946]

Being able to walk down the street with friends as teens with shotguns going hunting without getting the cops called.

Amen to this.

Yes.

What is a juke box? I think it plays music, right?

Small, often portable music player. You put in a quarter, choose your song, and it plays the song.

You can't be serious. Yes. An original juke box (floor models) are loaded inside with actual LP records and record player. You can flip through the 'pages' and choose one song or several. Put your coins in the slot, punch in the numbers for those songs, the machine finds your record and loads it on the player, and voila...
I'm not sure how the tabletop models worked, but they were still in restaurants like Dennys, IHOP, diners, and truck stops until about the 1980's I think.

I remember when my FFA chapter had a magazine selling contest. Whoever sold the most subscriptions won a 12ga 3 shot pump shotgun. Second place won a single shot bolt action 410ga shotgun and 3rd place won a high grade hunting knife. I came in second. They were handed out to us at school. About 1960 and there were no school shootings then.
